Rafa Matos. Rafa has been Skip Barber National Champ, Star Mazda Champ, Formula Atlantic Champ, 24 Hours of Daytona Winner, GrandAm Daytona Prototype Winner, IndyLites Champion (all in the last 5 years) and next year will be Full-Time in IndyCars driving for Luczo-Dragon.
This helmet was also in the Mazda commercial. The background is flat-black which really makes the colors POP.

I've collecting helmets for a few years. I try to collect Real race-worn helmets, which can be tough to come by. I only have a couple replicas but they are autographed. I'm expecting 4 more next week.
Some others, but no fancy paint jobs.
James Weaver - one of the Best Drivers ever - this is very Rare, as James only had a few helmets his entire career and it's a Shoei, which is a motorcycle helmet company and they made very few Auto Racing helmets. James painted this himself.

Jon, I would, but a Schumacher helmet is not very Rare, therefore you wouldn't really want it. Schumi brought 3 helmets to every race - One for practice, qualifing and the race. He had a different variation for every race while he was Ferrari. Plus there a like a Gillizion replicas out there.
Here is 1 wall of Helmets, with others scattered around the house. I will be re-doing the wall this weekend, because of the additional helmets showing up next week.

I bought this Porsche Design Helmet at a swap-meet for $15. URY asked me what I was going to do with it. I painted it, took it to Sebring, had all the Penske RS Spyder drivers sign it. I then framed a signed print of the Spyder with all the pictures of the drivers signing my helmet

What an awesome collection. The Senna helmet, wow... I doubt they were aware
of the collectable nature of race stuff back then the way people are now. Did
Michael really need 3 helmets for each race or did they do that knowing they would
be valuable?
A picture of each driver with their helmet next to the actual helmet would make
a cool display, but you are going to run out of wall...

I have pictures of most of the drivers with their helmets that I now have. Since I'm running out of room, they are in plastic sleeves under the helmet.
I think Schumi or his sponsors realized the market and that is why he brought 3 helmets to every race. The F-1 drivers are the ones with new new schemes at races. The Monaco race especially. A couple of years ago the McLaren drivers had helmets with Diamonds inset spelling out Monaco. Most top-flight drivers will have 2 helmets with them at every race just in case. However, some drivers like James Weaver used the same helmet & driving suit for years. The helmet I got from Rafa Matos, he used for 3 years. Sometimes it is superstition.
