Crafted by Qatari artist Alanoud Al Ghamdi, this replica helmet blends sport and culture in its intricate designs.
The original helmet is inspired by the flora and fauna of the desert, its nomadic people, and long-standing traditions. Using textures inspired by the sand, the colour of the Qatari flag, Arabic calligraphy, and the cultural symbol of the horse, the design is closely linked to the Qatari national identity.
In their dedication to making a difference in the local community, Qatar Creates and Pierre Gasly will put Alanoud Al Ghamdi’s helmet up for auction after it is worn in the main race on 8 October 2023, with all proceeds going to charity.
