This year we prepared a new helmet for Fernando Alonso´s 30th Birthday on 29th of July.

As he´s a real Motorbike and Ducati-Fan (he´s driving a custom-made Desmosedici RR) we provided him with a custom-made Schuberth SR1 at the Race in Hungary.

Here are the pictures of the red SR1 and we hope some more pictures on the track will follow ! Congratulations to making 3rd in Budapest and Happy Birthday !

Already spotted last week at the Wrooom-Event here are all the new helmets and designs of the Ferrari-Team for the 2011 season.

This is the new 2011 follow-up model Schuberth SF1, developed over the last year. The new SF1 will be delivered to all our sponsored drivers from DTM, Formula-1, GP2, Indycar and other series in the following weeks. And finally the SF1 will also be available for sale to interested Drivers from mid-2011 !

We will officially launch the helmet on our website, blog and facebook – you also can send us a mail to carracing@schuberth.com if you´re interested in buying a SF1 and we will keep you updated.

And now here is the complete set:

On Thursday, Fernando Alonso celebrated his 29th Birthday at the Hungaroring in Budapest. Our Schuberth Racing Service gave a small gift to the Spanish Formula 1 World Champion.  My colleague Sven handed the gift to Fernando Alonso on Thursday morning in his Ferrari motorhome. The new Schuberth C3 flip-up helmet in original Formula 1 Design was painted by Uffe. The Finnish helmet designer gave him the painted design on the C3 as a present.

Our Spanish driver was so pleased that he wanted to try the helmet even in the first practice session on Friday. And on his Ducati. It looks like we have made somebody happy. Here are the photos of the helmet:

Last but not least we have to say:

Happy Birthday from all of us, Fernando!

Schuberth has been developing and producing Formula 1 helmets since 1999. The first Schuberth helmet was introduced into the Formula 1 during the Grand Prix Monaco in 2000.

Since 2003 Schuberth has been the official partner of Scuderia Ferrari. In addition to the drivers’ helmets we also manufacture the Ferrari pit-crew helmets. Further developed from our motorcycle helmets, the pit-crew helmets were equipped with a special protection in the chin area.

And today we have taken the opportunity to have a look over our colleague’s shoulder while assembling such a pit-crew helmet.

After the crew has practiced dozens of pit-stops, there is nothing that could go wrong.

Good look in Modena!
