Formula
Formula motorsport helmets must be fitted with a visor and a mechanism to ensure is stays firmly in place during the high speeds experienced during a circuit race in an open car.
Formula helmets can be used in a closed car (assuming the same homologation) and there is no difference in the construction other than in the visor and a pin that connects the two.
Stilo helmets can be converted from open car to closed car and vise versa.
Formula Racing Helmets
The helmet is arguably the most critical piece of equipment a driver can wear, as it provides protection for the head and brain in the event of an accident.
Among the different types of helmets, Formula Racing helmets are designed to meet specific safety standards set for Formula Racing, these standards can be even more strict than regular motorsport helmets, as Formula Racing does not offer the protection of a cars' roof.
One of the top brands in the racing helmet market is Stilo.
Stilo helmets are known for their advanced technology, high-quality materials, and superior design. They feature advanced aerodynamics that helps reduce wind resistance and noise, making it easier for drivers to stay focused and perform at their best. The helmet also features a lightweight construction, which helps to reduce fatigue during long periods of driving.
One of the key features of a Stilo helmet is its advanced ventilation system. This system is designed to provide optimal airflow and reduce heat buildup inside the helmet, keeping the driver cool and comfortable even in the most challenging conditions. The helmet also features a lightweight construction, which helps to reduce fatigue during long periods of driving.
Another important aspect of a motorsport formula racing helmet is safety. Stilo helmets are designed to meet the strictest safety standards set by the FIA for Formula Racing, which provide more protection and impact resistance compared to regular motorsport helmets. They also feature advanced materials such as carbon fibre and kevlar that are lightweight and provide a high level of impact resistance.
