The Simpson Hybrid Sport FHR Device (Women's Version) is an elite frontal head restraint meticulously re-engineered to provide female racers with uncompromised neck protection and a flawless anatomical fit. As the only FIA-approved alternative to a traditional HANS yoke, the Hybrid Sport completely reimagines driver safety by utilizing a low-profile body-strap system. Instead of pressing down heavily across your chest and collarbone, it wraps securely around your torso. This leaves the upper chest entirely free, removing painful pressure points and offering the most comfortable, unobtrusive restraint available.
What sets this specialized Women's version apart is its tailored architecture. Simpson builds this unit with extended vertical shoulder and front straps alongside modified chest routing. This creates a contoured, natural fit around the female figure, preventing the shifting or pinching common with generic safety gear. Because the strap framework anchors the device directly to your body, it stays firmly in position whether you are buckled tightly into your seat or moving around the paddock. For stage rally crews, endurance drivers, and track day racers, this means you can keep the device on between stints without needing to constantly unclip your helmet.
Forged from a high-strength, lightweight DuPont carbon-polymer blend, this device features prominent outer guide wings to keep your safety harness belts centered perfectly during a heavy impact. Equipped with a high-performance sliding tether network as standard, it delivers a superior side-to-side range of motion, allowing you to check your mirrors and look deep into corners with zero restriction.
Key Features:
- Tailored Female Engineering: Outfitted with longer vertical front straps and an adapted harness geometric profile designed specifically to fit the female form comfortably.
- The Ultimate HANS Alternative: Ergonomic torso-anchored design that bypasses the collarbone entirely, freeing your chest from restrictive overhead plastic frames.
- Independent Torso Stabilization: Stays firmly seated with or without your harness tight, providing an exceptional safety advantage during cockpit egress or vehicle maintenance.
- DuPont Carbon-Polymer Composition: Advanced lightweight matrix shell that minimizes neck fatigue under high cornering loads while providing maximum energy management.
- Standard High-Flow Sliding Tethers: Delivers excellent lateral head movement and a wide field of vision, connecting smoothly to all standard helmet HANS posts.
- Dual FIA & SFI Certifications: Fully homologated to FIA 8858 and SFI 38.1 safety directives, ensuring compliance at national and international race events.

- Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):
- How does the sizing measurement differ for the Women's version? The measuring technique is identical—you still measure your chest circumference over your racing suit layers to pick your base size (XS through XL). However, when you select the Women's specific model, the internal harness assembly automatically shifts to the female-optimized blueprint, providing longer front vertical straps to ensure proper load distribution.
- Can I use a Quick-Release tether system with this device? Yes. The device comes standard with sliding tethers that slip over standard HANS posts. If your helmet has modern M6 threaded terminal washers built into the shell, you can swap out those standard posts for a Simpson M61 quick-release anchor set. This allows you to completely free yourself from the restraint by simply pulling the yellow release cords.
- Does this device require specific 2-inch harness straps to fit? No. The sculpted safety wings located on top of the shoulder pads are deeply channelled to capture and retain both standard 3-inch harness belts and modern 2-inch HANS-specific shoulder straps, keeping them completely locked over the structural frame under extreme forces.
