Hearing protection for racing events

Protect your ears from start to finish!

The excitement of the race, the smell of burnt rubber and the contagious energy of the crowd make attending racing events an unforgettable experience. With Alpine hearing protection for racing events, you ensure that you don't miss a single moment of the action while keeping your hearing protected from the powerful sound of roaring engines. Ready for the start?

Wearing hearing protection during a racing event is not a luxury. Most cases of noise-related hearing loss are the result of cumulative damage from repeated exposure to harmful noise levels.
The risk of hearing damage depends on several factors:

• How loud the noise is;
• The duration of noise exposure;
• How much rest your ears get in between;
• Your individual sensitivity to noise.

Why should you wear hearing protection during racing events?

The maximum noise level considered safe is around 80 dB. With every single lap, spectators are exposed to volumes between 130 and 140 dB during racing events. If you watched an entire race from the front row without any hearing protection, your ears would endure as much as 85 times their daily 'dose' of noise.

At Alpine, we want you to enjoy your favourite races safely. That's why we have developed different types of hearing protection for Formula 1®️, MotoGP™️, 24 Le Mans®️ and Indy 500®️ racing events.

FAQ

During Formula 1®️ races, spectators are exposed to sound levels between 130 and 150 dB. This can cause immediate and irreversible hearing damage. To prevent this, we provide Formula 1® Racing Pro earplugs and earmuffs. For young F1® fans from 5 years old, there are the Formula 1® Racing Muffy Earmuffs.

Although sound levels along the track at motorcycle races are not as high as at Formula 1®️ races, you still need to consider around 130 dB. Our MotoGP™ MotoSafe® Race Earplugs, MotoGP™ Racing Pro Earmuff, and MotoGP™ Racing Muffy for children from 5 years old are the ideal hearing protection for MotoGP™️ races.

At the 24 Le Mans®️ races, sound levels in some areas can reach nearly 140 dB. With the Alpine 24h Le Mans®️ Earmuff (and optionally the 24h Le Mans®️ Racing Muffy for young racing fans), you don’t have to worry about that.

As a spectator at Indy 500®️ races, you can experience around 130 dB (depending on where you sit) – similar to NASCAR races. Wearing race earplugs or earmuffs is the only way to prevent hearing damage during these racing events.

Protect your ears from start to finish with Alpine hearing protection for race events! With us, you are assured of high-quality race earplugs or earmuffs with Dutch design. We also offer free shipping within the Netherlands.
