What else did Lando Norris say?

In a recorded message, Norris revealed that her design was ‘cool’ and many people loved it. In fact, he even has a special wall of all his favorite things. He revealed that Eva’s helmet features alongside a replica helmet of his idol, Valentino Rossi.

Admittedly, her helmet is not quite in pristine condition owing to the dirt, but it is recognizable. Once the message ended, Eva opened her present to find a replica of her helmet design. Suffice to say, the 6-year-old was quite thrilled and even her family was delighted.

At a time when fans aren’t allowed to attend the Grands Prix, Lando Norris still had a fan by his side. In the buildup to the race weekend, Norris announced a competition where fans submitted their helmet designs and Eva won.

The design is fairly simple, featuring his name scribbled across both sides of a blank canvas in blue and orange. There is a crayon drawing of his logo and the orange McLaren emblazoned on the helmet.

Unfortunately, she could not fit his full name on the helmet, so the letter ‘S’ had its own separate space.
