Milestone and MotoGP™ are excited to unveil the unique helmet design created by MotoGP™25 video game players, which reigning Champion Jorge Martín (Aprilia Racing) will wear at the upcoming Monster Energy Grand Prix of Catalonia.
Between May 22 and June 23, 2025, fans from all over the world were invited to submit their custom helmet designs using the game's helmet editor, a creative tool that empowers players to bring their artistic vision to life. The initiative received submissions from over 50 countries and saw particularly strong engagement across Europe, with France (20%), Italy (17%), and Spain (15%) ranking as the top three nations by number of creations. Among thousands of ideas, Jorge Martín personally selected the winning concept, which he will proudly showcase on track in Barcelona.
“It’s amazing to wear a helmet created by my fans. It was so difficult to choose between all those amazing designs, but this is the one that surprised me the most. The graphics and the colors perfectly represent my personality, it will look amazing on the track! I’d like to thank everyone who took the time to submit their design. I’m truly excited to be part of an initiative that brings riders closer to the fans watching from home” – commented Jorge Martín.
The winning design, created by a Brazilian player, features the colors of the Spanish flag, elegantly mixed with electronic circuit designs and the iconic eyes, always present on the rider’s helmets.
Matteo Pezzotti, MotoGP™25 Game Director, commented: “We're thrilled to continue this initiative that connects gaming with real racing for the second consecutive year. Seeing reigning World Champion Jorge Martín wear a fan-designed helmet at one of the season’s most anticipated races is another milestone for us and for the passionate community that continues to support the franchise.”
The helmet will not only be seen by millions of fans worldwide during the race weekend in Barcelona, but it is also available as an in-game item in MotoGP™25, giving players the chance to race with the same special design as Martín.
MotoGP™25 is available on PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch™, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.
