The basic elements of a team are: racing car, team manager, drivers, technicians, logistics and so on. If the subdivision can range from a few people to dozens of people, the primary purpose is to ensure the normal operation of the team and the car to participate in the competition. Take the participation in CTCC as an example. If you apply to participate in the Club Cup, you must first choose a vehicle group, such as 1600CC, 2000CC, etc. (For details, please see the competition rules of CTCC). After applying to the organizer for team registration, you must choose a driver; Drivers need to register with the China Automobile Federation and get photos of the corresponding race level. In this way, the basic form of the team will be available, and then the team will have some technical rules and guarantees.
As for the annual inspection you mentioned, there is no new car listing, insurance or racing car. The vehicle comes to you from the manufacturer without going through the traffic control department, so your car doesn't need to be registered. Of course, without photos, you can't go on the road. This kind of car is only used in the racing area. Insurance, in racing, is not insurance for vehicles; And only do personal insurance for drivers.
I don't know if it is consistent with the direction you asked, for reference only.
