Shark Race-R Pro GP - Lorenzo Winter Test DAR
The Race-R PRO GP is the latest version of the iconic RACE-R PRO model, flagship of SHARK's Racing line, which has been an integral part of over 200 victories at world speed championships. Built for the track, this high-end, widely recognizable version has been fitted with an aerodynamic spoiler designed specifically for racing. The high-performance aerodynamic profile, achieved through close collaboration between SHARK's Research & Development teams and our MotoGP racers, is the successful result of state-of-the-art testing based on CDF (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulations.
Key Features:
- A shell built with a COVA (Carbon On View & Aramid) structure: lightweight, resistance to both abrasion and compression, effective at preventing delamination, shock absorption.
- Multi-density, EPS(Expanded Polystyrene) shell: optimal damping at each impact zone.
- Chin guard fitted with a removable, variable airflow anti-pollution filter.
- Dual-density, EPU (Expanded Polyurethane) chin guard: Material designed above all to absorb shocks reverberating around the chin guard.
- Ergonomic visor grip for improved handling and easy opening.
- High-strength visor comes with an Optical Class 1 rating and variable thickness (ranging from 4.2 mm to 2.8 mm) without introducing any visual distortion. Treated to prevent scratches and fogging. System installed to enable quick visor disassembly.
- Quick Spoiler Safety System: allows ejecting the spoiler in the event of a fall to limit the effects of secondary shocks and thereby guarantee the rider’s optimal safety.
- Aerodynamic spoiler: the Race-R Pro GP has been equipped with a spoiler designed to optimize aerodynamic performance when traveling at very high speed*.
