Official F1 Caps: The Complete Guide to Teams, Drivers and Styles
Quick answer: official F1 caps come in four main types: team caps with the team logo and sponsors, driver caps with a driver's name or number, special edition caps made for one race, and lifestyle caps for everyday wear. They are made by each team's partner, such as PUMA for Ferrari and McLaren, adidas for Mercedes, and New Era for Red Bull Racing, and most are adjustable to fit most adults.
