“Our vehicles were built jointly by three separate teams. Triple8, Jim Beam Racing and PCR have shared information and worked on each other’s cars, leveling the playing field for the Ford contingent of the V8 Supercar series this year”

not like the force india and maclaren deal
but the force india engineers and car builders going to the maclaren factory and working from the car plan
would this work in f1 or be allowed ?
