It doesn't need to be. Sprint races don't last very long. The seat is needed for support during cornering. There is probably a cover that was taken off for installation. Plus, you wouldn't want stray sparks from the welding to burn your seat.

The seat has a cover and is comfortable with or without it. You are correct welding sparks don't like seat covers.
