Scott Dixon helmet

Hello guys,

My first time here on forum. I'm making an art of Scott Dixon and I'm trying to figure out what is that shield he displays at the back of the helmet. Maybe someone have any idea?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Bender,

Uhmmmm... I gess not. He was awarded with Sportsman of the year 2013, and have an 2014 over the shield. I investigate his bio and not found anything special in 2014. Thanks for your reply!

Sure, but this shield looks that remains the same with that 2014 there. So, something happened at 2014 ... at least this is my theory, but I can be wrong!

The year in the picture in the link on the helmet is 2016 not 2014 and the article is from 2016 (as well as the certification date of the helmet in the bottom left of the picture) so I'd guess that the year is nothing more than the current season year.

Man, first of all, I'm appreciating this Sherlock Holmes work, is funny! Annoyed, looks like your are right. Checking again that 2014 at the top of the shield, I'm not sure that is 2014 anymore, could be 2016 ...
Edit: no... zooming in, is 2014, no doubt...

When I zoom in I see it clearly as 2016...

It makes more sense for it to be 2016 given that it is a 2016 helmet and nothing special happened to him in 2014.

I'll try some luck with 2016 as a parameter, let's see if I got something new. Good point!

He also won it in 2008. He makes mention of keeping certain features as an ongoing theme on his helmet from year to year ie the 4 stars from the NZ flg, the orange as a tribute to Bruce McLaren and the black and silver from NZ Sport and All Black traditions and the silver fern.
