However, based on recent developments some new directions have emerged. Based on voting the team has appointed a new temporary manager, whose goal is to secure the future of the team and conclude sustainable deals for the team to carry on into the future.
It has emerged that the Temporary Manager of still-named Yellow Jens GP Racing Team has made co-operation proposals to three active yet unsuccessful teams: POS Racing Team, Aki Racing Team and Vauxhall Astra Racing Team. The project proposal recommends to unite forces to try to collectively be more successful next year via several co-operation methods, like sharing the drivetrain, exchanging engineers, and so on.
The manager made a comment on the plan and why it is the way to go forward. "The problem with our team so far was that it was too conservative. We are always trying to be innovative and look into the future. In my view co-operation and shared wisdom is the way to go. If you look at the professional F1 top-level sports, McLaren and Force India co-operate, as do Toro Rosso and Red Bull, and Ferrari and Sauber."
"Not only are we looking to develop the drive-train together, but would like to give our drivers, whoever they are going to be, the opportunity to practice on other teams' simulators. In the end variety makes them more adaptable and this was our problem last year, drivers could hardly improve during the season. We are awaiting confirmation of interest from three teams to our proposal. Considering none of us was particularly successful this year, I believe it is an attractive proposal to strengthen the competitiveness of all of us and move to the front of the field next season."
