Arai GP-7SRC Standard Eyeport Helmet – FIA 8860-2018 Professional Motorsport Helmet

The Arai GP-7SRC Standard Eyeport is a professional FIA 8860-2018 homologated racing helmet for circuit and endurance racing. It has a lightweight Super Racing Carbon (SRC) shell with Hyper Ridge reinforcement, an aerodynamic shape, multi-point ventilation, and is factory prepared for FHR / HANS® head and neck restraints.

Specifications

Shell and construction

The SRC carbon shell is light but highly rigid, built to manage impact energy while reducing neck strain over long sessions. The aerodynamic shape helps cut drag, and Enhanced Hyper Ridge reinforcement adds stability to the shell. The helmet is homologated to FIA 8860-2018, an advanced standard designed for professional competition.

Visibility

The standard eyeport gives a balanced, natural field of vision. It suits most circuit racing, helping you stay aware and consistent at speed.

Comfort and ventilation

The multi-point ventilation system keeps air moving and manages temperature and humidity to reduce fatigue. The interior fits securely to limit movement under load, and the padding can be removed for cleaning and fit adjustment.

FHR / HANS® compatibility

The GP-7SRC is factory prepared for FHR / HANS® devices. See our FHR / HANS devices, helmet visors and accessories and custom FIA race suits to complete your setup.

Who it suits

Professional racing drivers, endurance competitors and circuit racers who need FIA 8860-2018 equipment, as well as serious track day and performance drivers who want top-level protection.
