Tillett rib protectors have been used by numerous Formula one drivers while karting. This elite list of drivers includes names such as Lewis Hamilton, Michael Schumacher, Sebastian Vettel, Kimi Raikkonen, Jules Bianchi, Max Verstappen, Lando Norris, George Russell, Zhou Guanyu, Mick Schumacher, Lance Stroll and many more. Multi-layer design uses modern armour principles to dissipate energy and spread load. High impact internal composite panels do not deform on a hot day. Highly specialized soft energy absorbing foam. Will not damage race suits due to its plastic outer skin. Fully adjustable at the rear allowing the protector to adapt to a straight or V shaped torso. Able to protect using a very thin cross section, so does not disrupt the seat size. A driver with loose hips would receive even more rib pressure. The shoulder harness is elasticated, which adapts to a twisting torso and prevents the protector from being pullup when driving. It has a neat and effective adjustment method which allows far greater height adjustment. Inner layer of Lycra provides a comfortable and abrasive free surface for the driver, even when wet with sweat. Elasticated front strap conforms to the driver’s chest and enables unhindered breathing. Ultra-lightweight materials for the best performance, approximate weight 380g (mini) – 900g (XL). Size range, Mini, Cadet, XS, S, M, L, XL. Colours available, Black/ Silver, Black/ Gold, Red, Green, Blue, Fluro Orange .
