I remember that rumor too. I bet they are glad they stuck with Ferrari.

How do you know that prost leased the engines?
If that is the case why phoenix tried to use them this year for their gp debut? Why didn't Ferrari take them back?

All i know is that this year there will be 40 engines purchased & built for Sauber in Maranello by Ferrari.

I tought that is whay they attached the back ends of the Arrows 3 seaters, to the prost tubs?
