Ryan McConkey announced to the media today that he has agreed to be a personal manager of Juha Tanskanen on a long term contract. The details of the contract were not told to public.

Ryan McConkey had following to say:
"I'm quite excited to be Juha's personal manager. Juha approached me and asked if I'd be his manager. You might think, 'What the hell would anyone in simracing need a personal manager for?', but buddy, let me tell you, it can be hard for some people to get anywhere in simracing. Juha's a really keen member of the league and he really wants to get better at racing. I myself can be fast sometimes so I can hopefully teach Juha some things and help him with getting the car setup and various other things. I feel Juha can only excel from this point onwards!"

Juha was also able to comment this announcement, he had following to say:
"I am very happy that Ryan agreed to be my personal manager. Ryan is a very nice guy and I get along with him very well. The best thing about this is that he handles his work with pure professionalism and style, that was one of the main reasons why I asked him that if he would be interested to be my manager in the first place, so I am really looking for to our managerial co-operation to start."
