Carlos Sainz is conducting a different kind of test in Bahrain this week as he prepares for the new season.
Williams driver Carlos Sainz is currently testing a Stilo helmet in Bahrain to prepare for the upcoming season. As a previous user of Bell helmets, Sainz is now considering becoming a customer of the Italian company. Despite no final decision being made, the Spaniard is seen sporting the Stilo helmet during the current test, as posted on the team’s social media. Stilo’s F1 roster may see an expansion if Sainz joins Lance Stroll and Valtteri Bottas.

Although Arai is not represented among the drivers, Jack Doohan remains a loyal customer as a Haas reserve driver.
