McLaren’s Lando Norris has become the 21st driver to add his signature to a helmet signed by every living Formula 1 world champion.
Organised by Sir Jackie Stewart for his charity, Race Against Dementia, the helmet was part of a prize draw to raise funds for pioneering research into the prevention and cure of dementia. The winners of the prize draw will receive the helmet, having already had the chance to attend the 2025 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
“Dementia is the greatest challenge of my life, far tougher than anything I faced on the track. Watching my wife Helen, my timekeeper and number one supporter, live with this illness has made me more determined than ever to fight for a cure,” Stewart said.
Having clinched the title after a third-place finish at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Norris became the 35th F1 champion. “One helmet. 21 iconic signatures,” F1 posted.
“Lando Norris is the latest F1 legend to add his mark to the Race Against Dementia World Champions Helmet – created by Sir Jackie Stewart and signed by every living F1 World Champion to raise awareness and funds for the race against dementia. Connecting people, improving lives.”
