Williams driver Alexander Albon has unveiled a pet-inspired helmet for this weekend’s British Grand Prix, the 26-year-old’s ‘home’ race.
Albon, along with his younger brother and three sisters, Luca, Chloe, Zoe and Alicia, have a number of pets and even have an instagram page dedicated to them, with more than 64,000 followers.
The helmet, in a shade of lilac, features ten of the Albon family’s pets, including a horse, several cats and a dog.
A caption on @albon_pets page says: “We are all BEYOND excited 🥳 to have our pictures on our big brother Alex’s 🐼 helmet for the super special British GP 🇬🇧 this weekend 👌🏼♥️😎 Thank you Alex 🐼 – we feel really special 💜 – We absolutely love it & we hope that it will bring you lots of luck! 🍀🤞🏼love from Tino 🦊, Moomoo 🦁, Gucci 🐯, Looky 👸🏼, Frooky 🐰, Tinky 🦄, Horsey 🐴, Sasha 🦋, Duckie 🦆 & Goosey 🐥😻.”
Albon will also have an upgraded Williams FW44 this weekend, featuring a raft of updates that the team are hoping will push them into the midfield battle.
Brilliant. It looked great, and while, sadly, it wasn’t on show for long today, thankfully it did its job.
