Formula One's only American driver, Logan Sargeant, has revealed his new Williams helmet design ahead of his rookie season on some of the world's most challenging race tracks, following his step up from Formula 2.
The 22-year-old - who hails from Fort Lauderdale, Florida - finished fourth in F2 last year and is set to compete at the Bahrain Grand Prix next month with car No. 2 for Williams - the nine-time championship-winning British motor racing team.
On Wednesday, he showed off his new racing suit tailored in Williams' traditional deep blue color - a distinctive trademark of the group since its first F1 entry at the 1977 Spanish Grand Prix.
However, Sargeant's helmet design is what has gotten F1 fans purring for what lies ahead, as it proudly displays its drivers roots by showing off the American flag on its two sides.
Neatly enough, the flag is also lined up with the helmet's visor, while Williams' 'W' logo is also painted in Star and Stripes in a tribute to its drivers.
