From Lewis Hamilton's helmet to the belts of the Mercedes AMG F1 Team, winners of the Formula 1® world championship, from the suits of Sébastien Ogier to the seats of Toyota Gazoo Racing, recent winners of the world rally championship; from the helmets again for the Toyota drivers but this time in the racing version, winner of the World Endurance Championship, to the technical equipment of Johan Kristoffersson and his car, Rally Cross champion, up to the helmets, suits, gloves and shoes of the young drivers Jeremy Iglesias and Callum Bradshaw, winners of the kart world championships in the KZ and OK categories.

6 are the world titles awarded this year by the FIA ​​- International Federation of Motoring and the same number have been won thanks to the products of the OMP Racing Group of Genoa - Ronco Scrivia. An en plein that goes beyond all expectations.

In an extremely complicated year like the one just ended, the OMP Group, thanks also to the recent acquisition of Bell Racing Helmets, leaves its mark on all the world titles available.
Never in the 47-year history of OMP has this ever happened. To these sporting successes must be added the systematic safety victories in motorsport: the contribution of Bell and OMP products to the happy ending of Romain Grosjean's spectacular accident during the Bahrain F1 GP is just the tip of the iceberg in a world where clothing and safety devices allow the smooth running of such a potentially dangerous sport.

"It is the result of years of hard work and a lot of passion that we put into our work every day", affirms Paolo Delprato, President and CEO of the Group "It is the right recognition for all the 300 boys and girls who are part of the our Group and who daily strive to achieve the maximum. 2020 was an extremely difficult year for everyone, but having managed to bring home these results, however, makes us even more proud, giving us the right energy for the near future ".

"As OMP and as a Group we managed to significantly limit the impacts of the COVID emergency, but above all in 2020 we completed all the development and integration programs that we had set for ourselves, presenting ourselves on the threshold of next season with much optimism, necessary after the gloomy that we have all been through. In addition, we have important launch pad agreements that make us particularly positive for the next few years. Our Group is based in Genoa - Ronco Scrivia and having helped to win 6 world titles out of 6 is a source of pride for all of us and I think also for Genoa and Liguria. I really hope that this can also be a sign of positivity for the future that awaits us ”.
