Helmet:
The GP-R is a full-face helmet manufactured using composite material to create a lightweight helmet. This helmet features a great ventilation system comprised of four air intakes on the chin and eight vents on the top of the helmet. The standard-sized eye-port allows the helmet to be used with both classic shields and touring sun peak (sold separately – SC179) and makes the helmet suitable for several motorsports disciplines, from formula cars to GT cars. Soft inner comfortable fabrics allow best fitting comfort; double ring closure. The GP-R comes with factory-fitted Hans posts.

HANS Device:
Hybrid devices manufactured by Simpson are the only FIA-approved head & neck restraints on the market that protect during front, offset, and side impacts. Specially designed for swiftly exiting the car without the danger of getting caught in other gear, the Hybrid Sport Head & Neck Restraint rests on your back and shoulders, to provide enhanced comfort and maneuverability, instead of over the chest or collarbone which is commonly used with more traditional HANS devices. This Hybrid Pro Rage model is manufactured from composite materials to create a durable and protective device at an affordable price.
This product is supplied ready to fit your existing FIA HANS posts, however, it can be provided with optional M61 quick-release tethers which are fitted in place of your original HANS posts.
Variations:
Standard HANS Posts – This option enables the Simpson Hybrid Sport Head & Neck Restraint to be used with helmets that have standard fitment HANS anchors already fitted. Approved for helmets maintaining the FIA 8858-2002 / FIA 8858-2010 standard or higher.
M61 Quick Release System – This option allows the wearer to release the restraint by simply pulling on the cord attached to the helmet. Approved for helmets maintaining the FIA 8858-2010 standard or higher. Ideal for motorsport events, such as rallying, in which the helmet may be frequently taken on and off.
