This link is to the CIK website together with the extract about helmets. All gets very confusing and I saw a CMR helmet advertised on ebay and the description said it was compulsory for all under 12s from 01.01.11 and also for all under 15s racing in Europe. No idea wher the age 12 comes from but very difficult for potential customers if this type of incorrect statement is made.
