Bell GT6 Pro Helmet – FIA Closed-Cockpit Racing Helmet

The Bell GT6 Pro Helmet is a high-performance motorsport helmet designed specifically for closed-cockpit racing environments, delivering excellent visibility, controlled ventilation and advanced impact protection for professional competition use.

Developed with design DNA from Bell’s HP6 platform, the GT6 Pro is engineered for drivers who compete in enclosed race cars where airflow management, communication systems and wide visibility are critical to performance.

Built using a lightweight carbon-fibreglass composite shell, the GT6 Pro balances strength with reduced weight to help minimise driver fatigue during long stints while maintaining high structural integrity.

Safety & Construction

The Bell GT6 Pro is designed for professional motorsport applications requiring reliable FIA-grade protection.

Key construction features include:

• Lightweight carbon-fibreglass composite shell for strength and reduced mass
• Multi-density, multi-piece energy-absorbing liner system
• Factory-fitted HANS® / FHR anchor posts for head and neck restraint compatibility
• Optimised structural design for closed-cockpit racing environments
• Motorsport-grade construction for competitive use

The shell and liner system are engineered to manage impact energy efficiently while maintaining comfort and stability in high-performance conditions.

Ventilation & Cooling

The GT6 Pro is designed for enclosed cockpit environments where airflow is more limited:

• Optimised ventilation system with extraction airflow channels
• Designed to support cooling in closed-cockpit race cars
• Compatibility with external forced-air systems via optional intake systems
• Interior designed for comfort during extended race stints

This makes the helmet particularly suitable for endurance and prototype-style racing where sustained comfort is essential.

Visor & Visibility

Visibility is a key focus of the GT6 Pro design:

• Wide eyeport using SE06 shield system
• Enhanced forward and peripheral vision for cockpit racing
• Shield designed specifically for enclosed race environments
• Improved situational awareness during competition

Integration & Motorsport Systems

The Bell GT6 Pro is designed for full motorsport system integration:

• Drink system compatibility via integrated facepiece channels
• Radio and communication system integration
• Optional top forced-air intake (mountable left or right vent position)
• Designed for professional closed-cockpit racing setups
