GP Racer leathers.

Just watching the moto GP, and Ive noticed that when the rider falls off, they have self inflating suits for protection.

How long have they had these, as Ive never heard of them.

I tried my RS Taichi suit on the other day and it looked as though an airbag had gone off inside it!
