The concept was established last year and the engine has been testing on the bench since August. In recent weeks, some details in the 2014 rules were changed which meant that they had to do additional work.

Wolfgang Hatz does not want disclose the engine configuration. However, he does state that it is not a straight six or a boxer. Many WEC observers assume that Porsche will use a 4 cilinder turbo. However, when reading that statement from Hatz, I believe that a V6 turbo could also be an option. In that case, the engine could be also used as a starting point for a F1 engine or a Indycar engine.
Think there is any chance it could run for Petit?
