PRAGA
One of the oldest and most diverse automotive manufacturers in the world.
Founded in 1907, Praga has made a remarkable range of vehicles from cars, motorcycles, and light trucks, to tractors, tanks, and aircraft. As research and development has continued to advance, the latest Praga R1 race car exhibits spectacular design, performance numbers, and notably lower running costs.
We have a passion for racing.
Uncompromised Safety and Maximum Performance
Developed, tested and raced on the most demanding circuits by some of the best known racing drivers, Praga is constantly improving their level of understanding the race car interface. Praga’s goal is the journey. The process of becoming better, faster and more efficient.

Safety features
Praga R1 crash safety structure is composed of bespoke honeycomb carbon fibre monocoque, carbon/Kevlar strengthened flooring, front and rear crash boxes, and side mounted crumple zones. An independent test centre in Cranfield (UK) carried out a test of R1’s monocoque according to FIA CN standard and the monocoque survived with absolutely no damage at all. Coupled with the racing standard six point seat belt, HANS system support, helmet side support, FIA approved fuel cell, polycarbonate windows, and an integrated fire extinguisher system, you’ll never feel so safe in a race car.

Extreme Aerodynamics
Teardrop-shaped R1 can generate downforce of up to 1,5x times its weight through its sophisticated aerodynamics. Enhanced traction and the overall capability of the car to go fast around the corners is what differentiate R1 from its competitors. The car can generate up to 3G of lateral force in corners.
