Wow. They allowed her to draw and color.
That nose bridge 🥵
Is it reasonable to show that much of a woman’s anatomy? I’ll blame the overtolerant Saudi government if the men can’t behave
Guys, they‘re done opressing women, they‘re free now!
You do realise neither niqabs nor hijabs are obligatory in Saudi
I’m sure all the other ways they’ve oppressed women have no bearing on it.
Congrats to Sara, regardless of the OBVIOUS BULLSHIT.
I always boycott this Grand Prix.
I boycott all F1 GPs. Never attended a single one.

Amazing.
Btw this is the quote they use in their press release:
Sara Turkestani, helmet design competition winner, said: “The competition gave me the chance to utilise my passion for art and design and showcase Saudi Arabia’s rich cultural heritage. The desert theme represents resilience and history combined with a modern style to represent F1. I am grateful for the chance to share my design, and I am so proud to see it on Fernando Alonso’s helmet. It’s such an honour to know that he will wear it for the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.”
And
The celebration began with Aston Martin Aramco Driver Ambassador Jessica Hawkins – who made history a year ago as the first woman to drive a modern ground-effect Formula One car – returning to the wheel for the second time. The symbolic journey saw Hawkins take the AMR23 across Saudi Arabia, stopping at a number of locations, including Ithra, Aramco’s remarkable cultural home in Dammam, as well as a newly unveiled Aramco premium retail station, and finishing at the iconic Jeddah Corniche Circuit.
Wtf is going on in this thread. Leave her alone
