Hadn't heard anything that sounded like teams were interested in either the Vette (prob pretty bulky for an LMP install) or the 911 RSR (very different layout and would take a dedicated team to build everything from scratch) engines for their cars.
All of the KERS and whatever systems will be hybrid as they won't allow the F1 style button release on the wheel, most likely will be the engine be shut off when using the pitlane limiter though. They better make a stronger anti-spin if they use the electric motors for launch off pitlane, no engine noise to cover the wheel spin sounds. As for the engines, thought it sounded like Audi was decently sure of a V6 diesel while there was some rumors going around on here that Pug was considering a switch to a petrol hybrid?
Could see Kolles picking up the r15+ from Audi if the factory chose to not run a split season while testing the r18(couldnt remember the number?) But I wouldn't be surprised to see the Kolles effort backed off a little if he increases his presence at HRT and tries to steer them in the right direction.
