The idea being that this would bring in VW and or other manufacturers into the sport.
A plan that Ferrari were dead against because they didn't make a 4 cylinder engined car.
Mercedes wanted to stick to V8s
Renault were very keen on the idea.
Lauda told Montezemollo Merc were building a hybrid V6 way back in 07,didn't you see my post and Lauda never denied he did say it and no I'm not bringing the post up again.
