Arai GP-7 FRP FIA race helmet
In motorsport, the difference between standard gear and true performance equipment often comes down to the smallest details. As the exclusive importer of Arai in France since 1996, Grand Prix Racewear is proud to present the Arai GP-7 FRP, the latest evolution in Arai’s automotive helmet range. Built to meet the highest demands of professional drivers, this model combines uncompromising safety, advanced engineering, and exceptional comfort.
At its core, the GP-7 FRP features a PB CLC composite shell reinforced with a peripheral belt for outstanding structural integrity. Inside, a unique multi-density EPS liner, molded in a single piece, perfectly matches the shape of the shell. This intelligent design strengthens key areas such as around the visor opening, while enhancing impact absorption in more exposed zones like the crown of the helmet. The result is optimized protection where it matters most.
For comfort and fit, the helmet is equipped with Nomex® interior padding integrated with the latest FCS-2 system. This innovation ensures a secure yet comfortable hold against the face, reducing fatigue over long stints. It also minimizes airflow from beneath the helmet, cutting down on aerodynamic noise and reducing lift at high speed — a critical advantage when racing on the limit.
The GP-7 FRP is fitted with an ultra-resistant 3 mm visor, supported by Arai’s latest locking mechanism. Drivers can keep the visor fully closed for maximum protection or slightly open for improved airflow. Designed with racing conditions in mind, the system ensures smooth and effortless operation, even with gloves on.
Ventilation has been engineered with precision: three front air intakes, two top vents, two upper exhaust outlets, and two chin bar inlets create efficient airflow throughout the helmet. This system keeps the driver cool and focused during demanding conditions, ensuring clarity and concentration lap after lap.
Compatibility with the Hans device has been carefully integrated, with a shell shape specifically adapted to fit the system seamlessly. This ensures maximum safety and stability without compromising comfort or movement.
The Arai GP-7 FRP meets the most rigorous international standards with dual homologation: SNELL SA2020 and FIA 8859-2015. These certifications confirm its reliability and make it fully compliant for use in professional motorsport worldwide.
The GP-7 FRP is more than a helmet — it is a precision racing instrument designed for elite competition. When every fraction of a second matters, trust in the protection and performance trusted by champions.
Choose the Arai GP-7 FRP and drive with total confidence.
