Genesis Magma Racing chair and cot are the latest technical equipment built for the grueling FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC). The two Korean companies have aligned to bring Helinox\u2019s renowned structural integrity to the Genesis Magma Racing (GMR) team for the 2026 season. Debuting at the WEC 6 Hours of Imola, the gear is engineered specifically for use in the paddock by drivers and crew.<\/p>\n<p>At the core of this partnership is a shared obsession with weight, precision, and sustained performance. The GMR-001 Hypercar and Helinox\u2019s folding equipment run on the exact same logic: strip what doesn\u2019t belong and strengthen what remains. In endurance racing, where the 24 Hours of Le Mans acts as the ultimate test, every gram on the car must earn its place. Helinox approaches its gear with the exact same philosophy.\n<\/p>\n<p>Helinox\u2019s foundational product, the sub-1kg Chair One, broke the assumption that strong objects must be heavy. This is achieved through DAC, the Korean aluminum manufacturer and engineering company behind Helinox. Working in high-performance alloys, DAC supplies the structural tubing that allows these chairs to hold more than a hundred kilograms while weighing almost nothing. When the Genesis Magma Racing car was unveiled, the Helinox and DAC logos sat side-by-side on its exterior, signaling a declaration of this shared engineering method.\n<\/p>\n<p>The first pieces from the collaboration \u2014 a chair and a cot \u2014 are working gear designed for heavy rotation through long weekends of practice, qualifying, pit work, and recovery. While currently serving the team on the circuit, this equipment is rigorously engineered to survive a long time.\n<\/p>\n<p>Retail versions of the Helinox x Genesis Magma Racing gear drops later in the season, with more products currently in development.<\/p>\n<div class=\"show-article\">\n<p>                                                            Read Full Article<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<footer>\n<div class=\"related-stories-main-wrapper\">\n<h3>Related Stories<\/h3>\n<div class=\"stories-container\" data-layer-list-name=\"related_stories\" data-layer-list-offset=\"0\" data-layer-list-child-selector=\".story-item\">\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6711616\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>GU Distills \u2018Neon Genesis Evangelion\u2019s\u2019 Cinematic Identity Into a Faded, Everyday Uniform\n                                                                        <\/div>\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6711792\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>This Bespoke Quagsire Mini Table Has No Thoughts, Just Vibes\n                                                                        <\/div>\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6711043\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>Buckle Up for Your 9-to-5: Toyota Turns the Crown Luxury Seat Into a $3,500 USD Desk Chair\n                                                                        <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-email-signup-wrapper impression-tracker\">\n<h3>We got you covered.

Magma Racing has partnered with Helinox to equip its crew with new gear for the 2026 FIA World Endurance Championship<\/li>\n<li>The collaborative chair and cot share the exact weight-saving engineering logic as the new GMR-001 Hypercar<\/li>\n<li>Following an initial debut at Imola, a retail version of the equipment is slated to release later this season<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Helinox x Genesis Magma Racing chair and cot are the latest technical equipment built for the grueling FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC). The two Korean companies have aligned to bring Helinox\u2019s renowned structural integrity to the Genesis Magma Racing (GMR) team for the 2026 season. Debuting at the WEC 6 Hours of Imola, the gear is engineered specifically for use in the paddock by drivers and crew.<\/p>\n<p>At the core of this partnership is a shared obsession with weight, precision, and sustained performance. The GMR-001 Hypercar and Helinox\u2019s folding equipment run on the exact same logic: strip what doesn\u2019t belong and strengthen what remains. In endurance racing, where the 24 Hours of Le Mans acts as the ultimate test, every gram on the car must earn its place. Helinox approaches its gear with the exact same philosophy.\n<\/p>\n<p>Helinox\u2019s foundational product, the sub-1kg Chair One, broke the assumption that strong objects must be heavy. This is achieved through DAC, the Korean aluminum manufacturer and engineering company behind Helinox. Working in high-performance alloys, DAC supplies the structural tubing that allows these chairs to hold more than a hundred kilograms while weighing almost nothing. When the Genesis Magma Racing car was unveiled, the Helinox and DAC logos sat side-by-side on its exterior, signaling a declaration of this shared engineering method.\n<\/p>\n<p>The first pieces from the collaboration \u2014 a chair and a cot \u2014 are working gear designed for heavy rotation through long weekends of practice, qualifying, pit work, and recovery. While currently serving the team on the circuit, this equipment is rigorously engineered to survive a long time.\n<\/p>\n<p>Retail versions of the Helinox x Genesis Magma Racing gear drops later in the season, with more products currently in development.<\/p>\n<div class=\"show-article\">\n<p>                                                            Read Full Article<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<footer>\n<div class=\"related-stories-main-wrapper\">\n<h3>Related Stories<\/h3>\n<div class=\"stories-container\" data-layer-list-name=\"related_stories\" data-layer-list-offset=\"0\" data-layer-list-child-selector=\".story-item\">\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6711616\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>GU Distills \u2018Neon Genesis Evangelion\u2019s\u2019 Cinematic Identity Into a Faded, Everyday Uniform\n                                                                        <\/div>\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6711792\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>This Bespoke Quagsire Mini Table Has No Thoughts, Just Vibes\n                                                                        <\/div>\n<div class=\"story-item\" data-layer-item-id=\"6711043\" data-layer-item-blog-id=\"1\" data-layer-item-type=\"post\"><span>&gt;<\/span>Buckle Up for Your 9-to-5: Toyota Turns the Crown Luxury Seat Into a $3,500 USD Desk Chair\n                                                                        <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-email-signup-wrapper impression-tracker\">\n<h3>We got you covered.
