That would be ideal, then we have 8 complete teams, that also means we can start

I like it with at least over 10 teams to start a race, in test races it's okay to be below 10 IMO.

I'd like to revive the HSBC jaguar team for this season.

It will be an experimental season, mainly testing and developing the car to make a full championship push next season.
