F1 drivers to be limited to one helmet design per season: your thoughts?




You can blame herr Vettel most for the trend: Seb has used 60 different design in his 10 year career and Ecclestone does not like it, he sees it as a contributing factor to viewer confusion.

Do you agree, or do you find it vaguely insulting?  

OK, the worst offender changed an average of 6 helmets per season but is that really what confuses viewers?  

Helmet painting, after all, came about when drivers broke the mold and started choosing their own individual designs, much like the fighting knight of past.    Is it right to limit their rights to self expression (and additional earning potential) ?
