The advanced Star GP continues the Bell tradition of developing next-generation aerodynamic helmets that deliver stability at high-speeds in a compact, ultra-lightweight design. Developed with feedback from the world’s best F1, Indy Car and Karting drivers, the SAH2010 Star GP is the helmet of choice for open wheel and formula racers.

The Star GP features an ultra-lightweight carbon composite shell, high-tech aggressive styling and a pro-plus style interior that provides superior comfort. The pro-plus interior delivers a custom interior fit by combining Bell’s soft plush-density fit pad system, contoured cheek-grip pad system to reduce movement and integrated collar that is designed to fully support the driver’s lower jaw bone area. In addition, the Star GP incorporates an industry-leading ventilation system that maximizes airflow inside the helmet. Star GP’s air intake force-injects airflow into the helmet’s forehead vents in a wide dispersion pattern to cool a greater surface area on the inside of the helmet. The helmet’s upper direct-flow chin bar vents and lower ram-air chin bar vents combine to deliver maximum airflow to the front of the helmet for additional cooling and to prevent shield fogging.

The Star GP is certified to the Snell SAH2010 standard which requires the helmet to be tested to the Snell SA2010 standard plus additional testing for use with Head and Neck Restraint Devices. Bell is the first company in the industry to certify helmets to the Snell SAH2010 standard. Bell’s M6 terminal hardware is incorporated into the helmet and accepts Head and Neck Restraint anchor system hardware. (We recommend consulting with the Head and Neck Restraint manufacturer to select an anchor system that allows the user to index the hardware in the proper location for use with the device.) The Snell SAH2010 standard is compatible with FIA8858-2010 and is recognized by the FIA for use outside of North America.

The Star GP takes a 287 SRV Shield which features the SRV-1 pivot system and thumb tab on the drivers left side to allow for easy shield operation. Each helmet comes with a clear shield and Bell visor strip as standard equipment. The Star GP also features Bell’s redesigned face piece with recessed areas that allow for seamless radio integration and easy installation. Racers can also customize the fit of the Star GP by using Bell’s Cheek Pad Inserts in 5mm, 10mm, 15mm and 20mm sizes to tighten the fit in the cheek area. In addition, replacement face piece kits are available for the Star GP in the event the front interior chin piece needs to be replaced. The helmet is available in White and Rubberized Matte Black finish – the rubberized surface is more resistant to finger prints and smudges than traditional flat finishes.

Based on the Star GP design and built on innovations first developed in the Bell Infusion, the Star Infusion is the ultimate in forced air helmet technology. The Snell SAH2010 Star Infusion is the first model in the industry that can be used as either a side air forced air or top air forced air model. Sold in the top forced air configuration, the Star Infusion can easily be adapted for use as a side forced air helmet though an innovative kit system. The helmet can also be used in a non-forced air configuration. Developed with feedback from the world’s best NASCAR and Sports Car drivers, the SAH2010 Star Infusion is the helmet of choice for racers in a closed car environment using a forced air system.

The Star Infusion features an ultra-lightweight carbon composite shell, high-tech aggressive aero styling and a pro-plus style interior that provides superior comfort. The pro-plus interior delivers a custom interior fit by combining Bell’s soft plush-density fit pad system, contoured cheek-grip pad system to reduce movement and integrated collar that is designed to fully support the driver’s lower jaw bone area.

With the versatility of the Star Infusion, professional racers no longer have to choose between a side forced air or top forced air model. Sold in the top forced air configuration, the helmet can be transformed into a side (left) forced air helmet (side air kit sold separately). The Star Infusion incorporates Bell’s ground-breaking air chamber technology to increase pressure and accelerate airflow (when used with an external forced air system) to maximize airflow for improved ventilation and comfort. In the top forced air configuration, the Star Infusion divides the air inflow evenly in vent channels that direct ventilation to the front of the helmet to cool the face and prevent shield fogging and into the air chamber top pad, evenly dispersing airflow to cool the driver around the top of the head. The Star Infusion features the new Quick Lock forced air nozzle that locks the forced air connector in place yet allows for easy release. The smaller nozzle design helps accelerate airflow into the helmet.
