Hamilton’s Yellow and Green 400th GP Helmet, São Paulo 2026

Key Takeaways

What the São Paulo helmet looks like

The helmet has a bright yellow base with green bands that sweep along the sides and around the visor opening. The green bands have glittering edges and carry small blue stars, so the yellow, green and blue of Brazil are all present.

Gold glitter ornamental swirls run across the sides and the top. A small Brazilian flag sits on the side of the chin area, and Hamilton’s number 44 is outlined in green on the sides. The video shows a mirrored blue-green visor.

At the back of the crown, “400” appears in a framed outline. The rear carries “HAM” in large green-outlined letters on a green glitter band, with the line “MELBOURNE 2007 – SÃO PAULO 2026” beneath it. The Ferrari shield sits on the forehead.

How Ferrari showed it

Ferrari revealed the helmet in a 16-second reel on its official Instagram account on 6 November 2026. Hamilton, in his red Ferrari race suit, puts the helmet on in the Ferrari garage, with the team shield on the wall behind him.

The camera then shows the top, the sides and the rear, before the helmet is seen worn in the car. The “MELBOURNE 2007” line points to his first Grand Prix, the 2007 Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne.

The 400th start at Interlagos

Hamilton will start his 400th Formula 1 Grand Prix at Interlagos on Sunday 8 November 2026, the São Paulo Grand Prix, round 20. According to GPblog, only Fernando Alonso has reached 400 starts before him, and Hamilton has started every Grand Prix he was entered for since his 2007 debut.

Interlagos is also where he won his first world title, in 2008. “It’s my 400th race there, which is kinda nuts,” he told reporters in Mexico City, as reported by GPblog.
