It’s F1 launch season and the latest to join the scene is McLaren star Daniel Ricciardo. The Aussie driver took to social media on Thursday to unveil his 2022 Helmet. “The Honey Badger” will head into his second season with the team donning a peach-colored headgear. It’s a complete shift in the base color, and it looks surreal.

The all-new helmet has a phrase that is close to Ricciardo’s heart, “present momentum”. The 2021 season was a tough one for the Aussie. The multiple Grand Prix winner had a hard time adjusting to the MCL35M through most of the season. Apart from a race win in Monza, he found himself mostly stuck in the mid-field.

However, he will look to make a stronger comeback this season but as this message displayed, he wants to be present in the moment instead of getting caught up in the future. Ricciardo has been training hard for this season, and with new regulations sweeping over, there is no limit to how high he can fly.

Ricciardo’s helmet will make a nice blend with the Papaya color-themed McLaren, though they are yet to reveal what the 2022 livery looks like. Expectedly, the fans went into a frenzy as he dropped the new unveiling clip.

Expectedly, when he launched his helmet for the 2022 season, a sea of positive, exciting, and funny reactions followed. Let’s take a look at some of them.
