MSA extensions to some harness and seat expiry
Don’t know if anyone has gone through the latest MSA bulletin emailed to licence holders, but couple of interesting changes for next year.
First, the latest 6 point harnesses with homologation 8853-2016 will have a life of 10 years rather than the FIA 5 years when used in National events. Life of the older homologation number harnesses is not changed.
Second, seats with FIA homologation 8855-1999 have 2 extra years of life added over the original 5yrs. Again, when used in National events. (The latest seat standard 8862-2009 has a 10yr validity.) Not sure if these screen prints will be readable- if not you’ll have to read the bulletin!
