MotoGP rider Fabio Quartararo sports a Venom inspired helmet

Monster Energy has revealed a monstrous collaboration with Venom and HJC Helmets, debuting at the Thailand Grand Prix.  

This weekend, MotoGP rider Fabio Quartararo is embracing his inner alien with a new helmet inspired by one of Marvel’s greatest and most complex characters, Venom, as Quartararo battles it out for top spot at the Chang International Circuit. 

Quartararo’s HJC Rpha-1 helmet was meticulously designed and hand-painted in Italy by the renowned Starline Designers.  

The design features Venom’s signature features – including his famous razor-sharp toothed grin and snake-like tongue – in a glossy finish that contrasts with the matte black base. The detail work required to achieve this finish is exceptionally difficult to execute; to make sure Quartararo stays race-ready the designers created three helmet masterpieces.  

The helmet design also incorporates Quartararo’s racing signatures with Venom’s tongue wrapping around his race number “#20” at the back and Monster Energy’s iconic M-Claw glowing green.  

Fans themselves can experience the thrill of being Venomized like Quartararo and try the helmet on virtually thanks to a new Venom Helmet Instagram filter. They can even get their hands on the real thing in December when HJC will release a retail version of the helmet priced at $649.
