Helmet Vettel will also be in sign of protest

Vettel is protesting oil drilling in Canada that is causing habitat for animals and humans to be seriously endangered. The oil companies are digging in a mine larger than the city of New York. The shirt he wore in the paddock on Thursday already carried a message against the oil drilling, but his helmet will also be in the sign of his protest.

The German Sky Sport spoke to the Heppenheimer at the press conference where he said that what is happening in Canada is a crime: "It is a horror for nature. Something like that should not be allowed. Many people in Canada and in the world don't know about it. It's about thinking about future generations." What will be on the Aston Martin driver's helmet was not yet made clear in the interview. During the practice sessions that will take place on Friday evening European time, we will only see what kind of helmet Vettel will drive with.
