Yes, this is the new regulation, the requirement of a HANS device when using a full harness. It makes sense: if your body is being held rigid and upright by a harness, then the bowling ball on top needs to be restrained the same way! It’s all or nothing here. You’re better off with a standard oem 3 point than a 6 point harness with no HANS.
