A big change is coming to F1 podiums from the Australian Grand Prix.
Pirelli is introducing new podium caps at grands prix to reflect the “traditions and cultural identity” of host countries. Starting with the Australian Grand Prix, black caps will be replaced by a baggy green-esque design inspired by Australian Test cricketers. Designed by Denis Dekovi, there are 14 different looks, incorporating colors and materials from the host country. This move follows past tweaks to podium caps, such as cowboy hats for the Circuit of the Americas race in 2012 and Russian Ushankas after the 2015 Russian GP. Pirelli aims to add flair and uniqueness to podium celebrations for fans and participants alike.
