Choose options
Bell HP-7 helmet used by former double Formula 1 World Champion Fernando Alonso during his second attempt to capture motor racing’s Triple Crown (Monaco Grand Prix, 24 Hours of Le Mans, and the Indy 500). Alonso used this helmet in both aero trial testing sessions at Texas and at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It was also lined up to be the helmet Alonso was to use on race day.
2017 saw Alonso’s first attempt at the prestigious race and after leading 27 laps engine failure took him out of the lead and out of the race. Unfortunately, the newly formed and inexperienced McLaren IndyCar team was beset with many mechanical problems and crash damage making their chance of qualifying for the race minimal. Even an experienced F1 World Champion driving for a legendary motor sport powerhouse could not get their entry up to speed and as Alonso failed to make the starting line up by just 0.019mph. This illustrates how winning the Indianapolis 500 is one of the toughest tasks in the whole of motor sport.
