Global Success: Stilo Helmets Lead the Way Across Rally, GT, and Single-Seater Disciplines

07/23/2025

July 19th and 20th proved to be another high-level weekend of international motorsport action saw Stilo-equipped drivers rise to the occasion across rally, GT, and single-seater competitions. From the fast gravel roads of Estonia to the technical corners of Misano and the narrow, unforgiving walls of Toronto’s street circuit, Stilo helmets were part of podium stories across four countries and four major disciplines.


At the heart of this winning weekend was one clear common denominator: Stilo.


Dominance in WRC2 – Full Podium at Rally Estonia


In one of the most competitive categories of the World Rally Championship, Stilo-equipped crews swept the podium in WRC2 at Rally Estonia with Estonian-born Robert Virves (pictured above) taking home the win. The high-speed gravel event demands absolute precision, focus, and confidence—qualities amplified by the superior protection and comfort of Stilo's rally helmet range. The full sweep demonstrated Stilo’s continued dominance in one of the most technically and physically demanding disciplines in motorsport.


Historic Podium for Kyffin Simpson in IndyCar


Capping off the weekend’s success was a landmark result in North America, as Barbadian driver Kyffin Simpson claimed his first-ever IndyCar podium at the Ontario Honda Dealers Indy Toronto, round thirteen of the 2025 NTT IndyCar Series. Racing for Chip Ganassi Racing, Simpson drove a smart and aggressive race on the tight Canadian street circuit to secure a career-best third-place finish.

Fittingly, Simpson was wearing a Stilo ST6 helmet with a unique one-off livery for the Toronto event—now a podium-finishing design that will surely be remembered.


GT Racing Glory in Misano and Beyond


Stilo was also front and center in GT World Challenge Europe, as the series took on the picturesque and challenging Misano World Circuit. Across various classes, Stilo drivers showcased their pace and professionalism, capturing podiums and class wins in the relentless sprint format. The performance reinforced Stilo’s position as the helmet of choice for endurance and GT racers seeking comfort, cooling, and total driver integration during critical race stints.


Formula Regional Talent Shines at Paul Ricard


In France, rising stars of the Formula Regional European Championship by Alpine (FRECA) tackled the smooth, high-speed surface of Circuit Paul Ricard. Several Stilo-equipped drivers finished inside the top ten, with one clinching a hard-fought podium. With many FRECA drivers viewed as future Formula 1 hopefuls, Stilo’s presence here underscores its commitment to supporting talent from the grassroots to the pinnacle.

Versatility, Technology and Performance


“Our presence in such important championships reflects our DNA: versatility, technology and performance,” said Paolo Bonetalli, Managing Director of Stilo.


“Whether it’s a sprint race at Misano, rallycross mayhem, or a WRC stage at over 180 kph, Stilo helmets give drivers the confidence to push to the limit. We are once again proud of the results achieved by the drivers using our products, and we want to extend our congratulations to each of them.”


From the “Red Cauldron” of Hungary to the gravel blasts of Estonia, Stilo continues to prove itself as the helmet brand trusted by champions and future stars alike. With continued success across multiple platforms, the legacy of safety, innovation, and performance continues to grow—one podium at a time.
