Where did Seb get that?

Oh, isn’t that cute? Vettel was matchy matchy with his girlfriend~~~ They were both wearing parkas and white tops (although Vettel’s looks a little sweater-like). Vettel was also wearing a verrry familiar looking scarf. While I don’t track driver stats per se, I do tend to track their accessories.

So where have I seen this scarf before?

On Wolfman in Spa 2010, that’s where:

Perhaps Wolfman gave it to Vettel as a parting gift? Or maybe Vettel is just copping Wolfman’s style? Or is it Red Bull team gear? 😉 Who knows.

edit: It is in fact Red Bull team gear! Check out this photo I found of Vergne. If you enlarge it, the Red Bull logo can be seen. This is a rather clever graphic design isn’t it? Despite my hate for logos, I rather like this take on a geometric pattern…

Naturally the next question is, where can Red Bull fans get this scarf? I’m not sure, but the flagship store in Austria would be my best bet.

Driver Spotlight : Jean-Eric Vergne

Since a few drivers from 2011 have been .. ahem.. replaced, I thought it would be nice to have a spotlight on some of the new faces on the grid. Of course, if you are looking for a biography, statistics, or analysis of their driving… you should probably head elsewhere (you know… like to a proper F1 fansite). Cuz this is thepitwalk, and this blog tends to focus on the superficial. 😉

So … what do we think about Jean-Eric Vergne? He’s no pretty boy, that’s for sure. It’s a bit of a stretch, but I can only think of Vergne as a Buemi replacement, especially with that backwards cap. 😛

Vergne seems to be fond of scarves, wearing them both on and off the track. Remember, a scarf is an absolute must for some F1 drivers (coughcough Rosberg):

Oh well, time will tell whether Vergne is F1 Top Model material or not. But based on what I’ve seen so far, I’d say … not. 😉

Grandma Chic

While Liuzzi is waiting for the final say about driving for HRT, let’s talk about what really matters: what Liuzzi wore to testing.

hmm, it looks rather confused, doesn’t it? While I do like the toggle coat and Liuzzi’s grandmother’s scarf, the cap just doesn’t go well with what he is wearing. Did he get dressed in the dark or something? =X

Anyway, I am quite fond of toggle coats and I will share a few of my favorite ones for men:

At the risk of “one upping” Liuzzi, I think this scarf/stole is a Liuzzi x EJ collaboration:

If you like this scarf, you may purchase it at revolve clothing for about $85 USD (Distinkt Cotton/Cashmere Plaid/Floral scarf). 😉

Team Leopard’s New Kit?

Hey look, it’s the new Team Leopard… and they’re all wearing scarves?

Wow. I haven’t seen so many scarves on men all at once since the Amber Lounge Fashion show in Monaco. LOL

Remember these photos?

Let’s not forget these other guys who also enjoy their scarves:

Well, there’s nothing wrong with scarves. I don’t know who is stealing whose style now though. 😉

A Day in the Life of Nico’s Scarf

From daytime at the track…

Till night time with girlfriend Vivian Sibold at the Thomas Sabo Party…

But this checked scarf gets in the way of sexy…

Off with the scarf says Mr. Too Sexy For His Shirt Rosberg. Or maybe it was Vivian’s idea? haha 🙂

Hot and Cold in Monza

Grey and pink happens to be one of my favorite color combinations. Grey and pink can be shocking and dramatic or quite soft and pastel like the pairing Jessica was wearing at Monza. Jessica’s overall look this time seems a bit mixed. She was wearing the usual short jersey dress and her favorite bag of the moment (Hermes Birkin). I also spy a black bra again. Jessica’s cream shawl was retired for Monza and in lieu of a soft pink one. However it does make one wonder a bit. Was Jessica cold at Monza? Is that why she was wearing the shawl? If so, why not just wear more clothing?

LOL.

Maybe she just wants to be sexy for Jenson. Or maybe the temperature was warm (yes, I am too lazy to check the weather history from that time), but the air conditioner in the motorhome was overly strong? Who knows. All I know is that it’s just another typical outfit for Jessica. Luckily she wore something much more interesting on race day. That post is coming soon dear readers! 😉
