For this helmet, Thierry Neuville chose the Antoine Alléno Association. On May 8, 2022, Antoine Alléno tragically died at the age of 24, the victim of a fatal act of violence that should never have been committed. His family and friends decided to transform their grief into constructive energy in order to help and take action. Together, they founded the Antoine Alléno Association to prevent acts of violence against children and help victims under 25 and their families.
