Early racing helmets were made out of stuffed leather tubes and looked something like a string of sausages placed in lines over the head. But once the step was made over into Styrofoam helmets design changes have been more down to colors and graphics. Today there are four types with a distinctly different look: 1) Time Trial (TT) and track helmets. Drop shaped with sort of a tail tapering off down the back of the rider. They often have integrated visors and no air vents. They're more about aerodynamics than protection. 2) Full Face or DH helmets. Plenty of padding, some vents and an integrated arch that protrudes in front of the jaw to offer face protection. 3) Dirt/street helmets. Fairly round helmets with a sturdy plastic outer shell. The only kind that'll keep offering decent protection even after a fall. 4) ordinary fitness helmets. Plenty of air vents, no face protection, maybe a small integrated cap. Is meant to be scrapped after any significant fall.
A biomechanical engineer or a sports scientist might study the effect of wind on different bike racing helmets. They would be interested in how aerodynamics impact helmet performance and how to design helmets to minimize drag and maximize airflow.

Mountain bike helmets are better than dirt bike helmets
No bike helmets don't reduce the number of bike accidents, but they do reduce the serious injuries related to the accidents. Bike helmets save lives.
they made the tracks with tractors instead of hand.

Auto racing helmets cannot be used for street bicycling or motorcycling, at least in many jurisdictions where minimum visual field requirements exist for a street legal helmet.Although auto racing helmets are similar in construction to motorcycle helmets and provide the same level of protection, they have a number of essential differences besides possessing fire protection required in ultra-high-speed car crashes:Car racing helmets are designed more for repeated impacts in a single place since a securely held racing driver will not move. In contrast, during a motorcycle crash the rider will hit his or her head in many places.Car racing helmets are shaped a little differently from motorcycle helmets because most hits are to the top of the driver's head rather than the front or the sides as in a motorcycle helmet. The full-face protection on a race car helmet will not extend as low on the face as in a motorcycle helmet.Race car helmets have very narrow visual fields. This means that if used on a street bike the rider could quite possibly not see a vehicle coming in from the side.These three features mean an auto racing helmet is not going to provide optimum protection for a motorcycle or bicycle rider on a public street, and could even be dangerous because it is so hard to see out of.
