Downton have confirmed they will supply a different team with engines when the sport moves to V12 power next season. In an interview Downton announced that they will be supplying a team with engines next season that they don't currently supply. 'I can confirm that next season we have a new customer for our engines,' Downton commented. 'It is one of the teams currently in the sport, and we have everything signed, sealed and agreed, although we - along with the team - have chosen not to announce the name of our new customer at this time.'
When questioned on what this meant for the Team 23 deal Downton replied, 'We have our deal in place with Team 23 for this season, and we're waiting to see if they take the option up for a second year with us. We would very much like to continue supplying engines to them but the ball in completely in their court.' 'We also have some very exciting news regarding the team coming a little bit later in the season, and as such I will mention no more on the matter now, only that our fans should not worry. The team is not being sold, nor is our identity changing, but this is big news for the team, and hopefully will help propel us further towards the front of the grid. It's not something to be feared, but instead to be excited about.'
