Editorial
| QUALITY. This word has been in the center of my business ethics from the beginnings of my Company in 1970. It permeates through every facet of our business. When in an economic downturn, the true value of quality becomes priceless. If there is a subject that is present at all times, it is that of safety education, as there is so much left unfinished, and the future offers so much opportunities. It is that education that my new “Racing Goes Safer” foundation wants to address, one that is gathering more interest and participation from so many different interests each passing day. They discover during our conferences, the value of our mission to promote greater safety. Upon observation, it is clear today that automobile racing is reaching new generations and a wider variety of disciplines, with racers constantly traveling across the planet to drive one day in a GT race in Fuji, the following week in a streamliner at Bonneville, two months later in an off-road machine in a Southern American Baja, then to Goodwood in a vintage machine or in some regional rally in Jordan... Regardless of which racing classes you prefer, live and breathe a sport that is so dear to us and brings us so much. |

Introduction
| WHO ARE WE? |
Stand 21 was established in Dijon-France in 1970 by Yves Morizot. Yves’s vision made Stand 21 the world leader in head to toe, made-to-measure racing gear. The secret of Stand 21's success is due to Yves Morizot’s business model that applied the following strategy: Identify a true need, then Stand 21's in house R&D Department will conceive and develop products that will fill these needs. With 150 employees worldwide, Stand 21 products are hand crafted within Stand 21’s own factories, exceeding the most rigorous safety and medical standards required by the FIA, SFI, the Snell foundation etc. Stand 21 offers its products to race car drivers through its exclusive Stand 21 network. This strategy, based on high business ethics delivers Stand 21 products in over 50 countries. That is why Stand 21 supplies safety equipment to top racing teams in FIA, NHRA, NASCAR, OFF ROAD, and more. From its introduction and as per the choice of the FHR device's inventors Robert Hubard and Jim Downing, Stand 21 has been one of two licensees and manufactures and distributes its own exclusive FHR product line worldwide except in North America + Mexico.
| Stand 21 holds the exclusive license for racing drivers’ equipment with Porsche Motorsport and Corvette Racing worldwide. Yves Morizot dedication to motorsport safety made him create a non-profit foundation that is exclusively dedicated to motorsport safety: www.racingoessafer.com. This foundation is a bridge between the medical and scientific knowledge and their direct motorsport safety application. By conducting safety conferences with Doctors, Engineers and Professors, the foundation raises motorsport safety awareness through education. |

Research & Development
PRODUCTS THAT EXCEED SAFETY STANDARDS
More than faster lap times or race wins, safety is what keeps motorsports going. Comfort affects the performance and safety of the racecar driver. In this regard, Stand 21 is committed in finding and testing new materials, options, and processes that will help develop the most ergonomic and safest products. This is why the “Heat Stress” research program began in 2004 and set multiply connections with the medical world, especially through the “Racing Goes Safer” foundation. Because of constant motorsport technical evolution, Stand 21 keeps up with the latest research, developing new products that exceed customer expectations.
 |
| It is on the track that Stand 21 has become what it is today: the technical partner of racing drivers concerned with safety and any parameters affecting their performance. For us, in terms of safety, technology and the medical aspect are one. That’s why our R&D department works hand in hand with motorsport medical specialists (MD. Trammell (U.S.A.), Prof. Meistelman (France), Prof. Trafford (UK), Dr. Mineo Kawasaki (Japan)... Thanks to this work ethic and latest-generation manufacturing equipment, Stand 21 products have passed the highest standards in motorsport today (FIA, SNELL, SFI, CIK ...). |

“Without any changes, drivers would still be dying in NASCAR. But I don't think we'd beseeing NASCAR right now, quite frankly. I think Congress would have gotten involved at some point... I believe so. You cannot continue to kill your heroes.” Dr. John Melvin, safety expert and NASCAR consultant about the death of Dale Earnhardt |
As a motor-racing safety source, the Stand 21 “Racing Goes Safer!” foundation is a non-profit organization (application pending) its primary purpose being of promoting enhanced motorsports safety. It achieves this goal in collaboration with the medical and scientific community, as well as with major series organizations (FIA, SFI, NHRA, SCTA, SCCA, SCORE), to bring awareness of safety issues and solutions to the forefront of the motorsports world.
By gathering and consolidating data and experience collected by sanctioning bodies, universities and medical-research entities, the foundation is dedicated to sharing this information to the Motorsport community worldwide through continuous education.
More than ever, this motorsport safety foundation is of utmost importance, considering the large increase in race car drivers (1970: a few thousands, today over 1.5 million worldwide, most of them amateur drivers).
