Alpinestars Race Suit Collection Updated For 2023

Racewear news, January 2023

We have updated our Alpinestars FIA race suits with the options Alpinestars released at the start of 2023. Every suit listing now has current information on FIA approvals and safety features.

There are new colours for the GP Race V2 and the Atom Graphic suit, and a few Alpinestars pieces in the showroom to try, including the SP V2 race boot, which is on display for the first time.

  • Alpinestars FIA suits updated with the early 2023 releases
  • Current FIA approvals and safety features on every listing
  • New colours for the GP Race V2 and the Atom Graphic suit
  • The Atom is Alpinestars' entry level FIA 8856-2018 suit
  • SP V2 race boots in black in the showroom, EU 47 / UK 12
  • Last Alpinestars Stratos suit reduced in the showroom, size 50

What we have updated

Fireproof race suits are compulsory in most forms of motorsport. We have been through every Alpinestars suit on the site and brought each one up to date with the new options for 2023, its FIA approval and its safety features.

The two suits with new colours this year are the GP Race V2 and the Atom Graphic, and both look very well designed in the new colourways.

The Alpinestars Atom

The Atom is Alpinestars' entry level suit, and it meets the FIA 8856-2018 standard, the current homologation with its higher levels of heat and flame protection. It is good value for an FIA suit.

It has two layers: an outer shell of 100 per cent aramid twill and a 100 per cent aramid lining. The arms and legs are pre-curved, and stretch panels are placed where they help, so the suit fits close in the driving position without restricting movement.

The GP Race V2

The GP Race V2 is Alpinestars' popular mid range suit. The 2023 version carries the FIA 8856-2018 homologation, with improved heat and flame resistance over the older standard, and it gains new colour options this year.

Garreth's advice for anyone choosing between the Atom and the GP Race is to try both on in the driving position. Our guide on how to choose an FIA race suit explains the approval and how a suit should fit.

In the showroom

For the first time we have the Alpinestars SP V2 race boot on display, in black, in EU 47, UK 12, so it can be tried on in the showroom.

We also have the last of our Alpinestars Stratos suits, in black and green, size 50. It has been reduced for clearance while it lasts. The Stratos is a two layer FIA approved suit in aramid, with fully floating arms and flat epaulettes that work with HANS devices.

Yes. It meets the FIA 8856-2018 standard.
