The Ligier uses Hewland. I know it's "progress", but Xtrac is becoming a Dallara equivalent; Hewland had DTM and F2, Ricardo works with manufacturers and Sadev has what part of the touring car/rally market Xtrac doesn't control...
The funny part in all of this, to me, is that there is absolutely nothing wrong with the current P2 cars. Ok the 3 losers would have to spend money to upgrade so they can challenge Oreca - much less than they'll spend for brand new projects (that are at risk of once again failing to match Oreca). The Oreca is faster than any of the mooted new cars, there are almost 50 of them around, it's reliable... and they'll phase it out! OK it's not perfect, it is a bit tight for taller drivers.
Waste will be less and less fashionable in the future; but the ACO will probably get the memo in 2030 - late as usual.
