Actually if you ignore the racing impact and just look at the fiscal argument, having one engine developed and everybody equal should enable more people to win than 3 parties all spending money to end up at the same place anyway. Plus leasing the engines mean a fixed cost which should mean there are no haves and have nots, and people can plan.
Besides, 888 hasn't made engines and will not be making these. They are going from KRE to GM motorsport. Noonan will be out of Supercars next year with BJR moving to KRE. so WP would be the only other choice practically.
