BELL HP6 EVO-II Carbon FIA8860-2018 Auto Racing Helmet 2026

This ultra-lightweight, super-strong advanced carbon fiber helmet features a wider visor opening suited to closed-cockpit racing. The full carbon shell, optimized liner structure, and SE06 eye port format work together to deliver superior protection, clarity, and comfort.

The following features explain the key technical details, practical benefits and outcomes you gain when using this helmet:

Ultra-lightweight FIA 8860-2018 Advanced full carbon shell: A fully certified carbon construction uses high-grade fibres and advanced layup techniques to keep weight low while maintaining strength, giving you reduced strain on your neck and improved comfort during long stints, which helps you stay focused throughout sustained periods in the car.
Wide SE06 eye port opening: A larger visor aperture uses the SE06 shield format to increase your field of vision, giving you clearer peripheral awareness in a closed cockpit, which helps you monitor track position with less head movement.
Advanced multi-density, multi-piece liner: A layered liner structure uses different foam densities arranged to manage impact energy efficiently, giving you improved protection across varied impact loads, which results in consistent performance when you need it most.
‘Smartlock’ visor locking mechanism: A positive locking system uses a secure latch that keeps the visor closed under load while still allowing convenient one-handed operation, giving you dependable visor retention and smooth opening when adjusting airflow or preparing for pit lane.
Integrated channels for radio and hydration: Internal routing paths are molded into the face piece to accept drinking tubes, valves, and radio systems, giving you a tidy installation route which helps you maintain concentration without loose accessories getting in the way.
Extraction vents for cooling and air circulation: Strategically placed vents allow warm air to escape and support airflow through the shell, giving you better temperature control which helps you stay comfortable during demanding sessions.
Compatibility with optional forced air systems: Top side vents accept optional forced-air intakes and external cooling kits including quick-lock and Maglock fittings, giving you flexible cooling options which help you fine-tune airflow for your cockpit setup.
Factory-installed FHR anchors: Pre-installed anchors are fixed directly to the shell using approved hardware, giving you a straightforward connection to your head and neck restraint, which helps you prepare efficiently before heading out on track.
HP helmet bag included: A protective carry bag uses a robust outer shell with a soft fleece lining to shield the helmet from knocks and abrasion, giving you safer storage and transport, which helps you keep the shell and visor in good condition between sessions.
