Hi Harald,
to bring some light in this matter i explain my point of view of the situation.
In 2009 E.S.Team Yellow was founded with Junior MALTA, Sailgood and me among other members to participate in the TL2009.
Afterwards Yellow was renamed to GHIACCIO to compete in the WTRC 2010.
Sailgood left GHIACCIO to join FUOCO. It was another team but within the same club of E.S.T.
In order to comply with SI 1.3. GHIACCIO was renamed to E.S.Team MALTA but never did an official race as such.
In fact it was only a temporary status.
Now, after cleaning up things the former winner of TL2009, E.S.Team Yellow, is recreated with its former members and renamed to E.S.Team Pirates to defend its title (and hopefully to compete for the WTRC).
Team MALTA should be deleted/renamed to E.S.Team Pirates and set on active status again (and stay as this for a long long time...)
Since SI 1.3.3 first sentence
The international has been a member of the team at least since 2009.
might imply that a member has to be in that team constantly there might be a problem with Sailgood.
I hope ITBYC will find a solution here.
