So Mercedes driver Nico Rosberg puts a sanitary towel on his head.
This bizarre - yet ingenious - anti-perspiration hack is described by Lewis Hamilton’s team-mate as a “sort-of headband” that he puts inside his helmet to prevent any dangerous leaks getting into his eyes.
In an interview with Sky Sports, he said:
"I have an issue with my eye when I sweat a lot so that is what the headband is for. Actually I do have sort of a headband in my helmet, it is my trick, but I can tell you.
