But that isn't necessary.

The intellectual copyright of this year's BAR is sold to Honda2, but not the actual chassis' themselves, and then Honda2 physically creates the acars according to said designs that they own.

The requirement is that the design be owned by said team (which does not necessarily mean they have to have come up with it), and then that they produce it (which just means they cannot buy tubs from a supplier).

Am I missing something?
