Feature Suggestion: Dynamic Helmets for Real Driver Transfers
I’d like to suggest a feature that would make the F1 Career Mode feel much more immersive and alive – especially now that driver transfers are a bigger part of the game.
When real F1 drivers switch teams in Career Mode (e.g. Stroll to Ferrari, Alonso to Mercedes, etc.), it would be amazing if their helmets changed to match their new team. Imagine Stroll with a red Ferrari-themed helmet, or Piastri in silver and black for Mercedes – it would feel much more realistic and visually exciting.
Right now, drivers keep their original helmet design no matter what team they join. But in real life, F1 drivers often adapt their helmets when joining a new team to reflect sponsors, colors, or personal branding. Bringing that into the game would add another layer of authenticity.
Even a semi-dynamic system – where each team has a “template” the helmet adjusts to – would be a great improvement.
It would also be awesome if custom driver helmets got team-themed suggestions when signing with a new constructor – just like how drivers in real life sometimes reveal new helmet liveries at their team launch.
Thanks for all the work you’re putting into F1 25 – this feature would definitely take the career mode to the next level!
Best regards,
Timo Vladislav (a huge fan of F1 and the game!)
