Leading Manufacturer Lends Support to Rising Open-Wheel Stars

PALMETTO, Fla. – Andersen Promotions today announced that Bell Racing Helmets will extend its partnership and status as the Official Helmet of USF Pro Championships Presented by Continental Tire – the premier open-wheel driver development system – through 2026. The collaboration, which began in 2019, further exemplifies Bell Racing Helmets’ commitment to helping young drivers as they climb the ladder to the top levels of motorsports.

Celebrating its 70th anniversary this year, Bell Racing Helmets is the world’s leading manufacturer of state-of-the-art head protection for professional and amateur drivers. Now under the Racing Force Group umbrella, whose brands also include OMP, Zeronoise and Racing Spirit, Bell Racing Helmets is the preferred choice at the pinnacles of racing including the NTT INDYCAR SERIES and the FIA Formula 1 World Championship. Racing Force Group directly supported over 40 teams and over 300 drivers globally in 2024 with its range of motorsport safety equipment.

For USF Pro Championships, the champions in each of the three series – USF Pro 2000, USF2000 and USF Juniors – will continue to receive a one-year Bell Athlete Contract which includes an FIA 8860 required helmet and accessories for that year.

All drivers and teams across the three series will be able to acquire Bell helmets and accessories at a discounted rate with 25% off for USF Pro 2000, 20% for USF2000 and 15% for USF Juniors.

“The mission of the Bell brand has always been to provide advanced head protection for every driver, including the stars of tomorrow,” said Kyle Kietzmann, CEO of Racing Force USA. “Being partners of the USF Pro Championships fits perfectly with our core DNA, so we are thrilled to continue to support all the young talented drivers on the USF Pro 2000, USF2000 and USF Juniors grids along their rise with our state-of-the-art helmets, product service and promotional activities. After another great racing season together, we look forward to the start of the 2025 campaign."

Bell Racing Helmets will also provide social media backing  to assist in showcasing the accomplishments of USF Pro competitors.

“Bell Racing has a strong presence throughout our paddock including being the preferred helmet of choice for our three newly crowned champions – Lochie Hughes, Max Garcia and Max Taylor,” said Dan Andersen, Owner and CEO of Andersen Promotions. “Our aim is to support our drivers as much as possible financially as they move up through the ranks, hence our scholarships. Having Bell Racing Helmets return as our Official Helmet amplifies our goals of assisting young drivers. We are thrilled to have them as a partner.”
