Hi! I was looking at some pictures of the new Lambo prototype. And I rely fancy the drivers helmet. Any gues what is the make and model?

I'd go for a Simpson of some kind. If they still exist?

From the shape of the snout I'd guess at a Simpson of some sort.

ETA: Too slow, beaten by ^^

Similar to simpson Outlaw, but the top edge of the visor is different.

not a simpson that, similar though. theres another brand that do bandit helmets but cant remember name but dont think its that either. may be custom for press shot?

Craft make copies with free simpson stickers! Most simpsons have vents built into the design of the shell. this looks smooth, probably as mentioned a one off, no doubt italian.

To be fair, if you are designing a supercar that costs that much money, I wouldnt be surpised if they didnt design their own lid to go with it! Would look a bit daft with a standard skid lid on show :p

You are probably right.

image looks rendered to me, so it may not actually exist, you might be chasing some pixels rather than a real skid-lid

I would go for the Craft helmet range,ive got them and these are similar to Simpsons but are road legal

You mean 'Cycle' legal, as there is no legal requirment to wear a helmet in a car you can technical wear what you like.(allthough its grey area if you can acctually wear one at all)

Yes motorcycle only not car. sorry i rushed the reply to the thread

my local bike shop has something a bit like that, its totally carbon fibre, damned beautiful and ACU gold approved

will check the look of it next time Im in there

trying to save the money up to buy it, no real use, but its just so tidy and light

also a bargain in real money terms

just lokoed at the picture better on my desktop instead of my phone, it does look more like one of the craft helmets.
