But at least they had the plans in place. Hopefully that engine will be more competitive in sportscars. And yes, I do think the engine they used in F1 in the early 90s was used elsewhere, wouldn't surprise me in the slightest
at the moment there is nothing in the universe that could match fuel/power efficiency of the mercedes V6* and don't think porsche would have been at the same level anyhow, but guess it could have been the perfect partner for redbull after honda drop.
