Obviously, he's not, and it turned out to be a new helmet design for Robert Kubica. 8)

And now the interesting thing: It actually is an "old design"! :)

According to Kubica quoted in today's MSA, this is a design he used before during karting + later stuff. He changed his design when he started testing for BMW, with the intention of returning to his "classic design" when he was driving races again. This has happened now, so he switched back.

Pretty interesting, isn't it?

Yes, those little stories are always interesting. I think Wurz always uses a white helmet when he comes to a new team. At least he did at Williams.

The new design of Kubica's helmet looks really nice! Better than the old one imo.
