Or is it going to bypass Prodrive and then it wouold become 'just' another prototype and have nothing to do with Aston or Prodrive.
I think the suggestion is that this would be an 'engine deal' for an existing LMP1 team (either leased, like the Audi/Swiss Spirit deal or a full works backed/funded deal along the lines of the Creation/Aim deal).
