A drivers’ helmet livery, like the heraldry of medieval Knights, is his identity. Over decades of racing, most top professional drivers have personalised and been instantly recognisable by their helmets. The best designs are the least complicated; designs that stand out from a distance.

Here are some examples of famous drivers’ helmets…

Anthony’s helmet livery was designed for him by a sponsor, Bob Moore, in 1983. Moore was one of the backers of John Kirkpatrick Racing and behind the SAAB F3 Project in 1985. Anthony has stuck with the design ever since. It is a very simple design comprising of a base colour of white with two horizontal red stripes just below the visor at the front, which sweep upwards at the back, and the area below them is dark blue. A very simple but striking and easily recognisable design. In 2018 Anthony added a ghosted chequered flag design on top of his helmet in the white area.
