Aston Martin has indicated it is open to collaborating with Cosworth on a F1 engine foray. The British luxury carmaker is now Red Bull's title sponsor, but it is interested in F1's simpler and more affordable post-2020 engine regulations.
And Aston Martin CEO Andy Palmer is now also interested in a tie-in with Cosworth, the famous former independent F1 engine supplier.
"Cosworth is one of our key partners for Valkyrie (the road car project) and we are working closely with them to create a V12," he told France's Auto Hebdo. "Extending this collaboration to a F1 project would make sense and it is a proposal that we would be willing to study," Palmer added. (GMM)

The only way I see them coming into F1 is if they partner up with someone. But even if they do make an entry, are Red Bull prepared to wait for them to git gud?

So team would be Aston Martin with Cosworth engine input or they would both support an international existing team?

I find an Aston Martin-Cosworth team to be an unlikely scenario. If anything, it'll probably be Aston Martin-branded Cosworth units to an existing team.

Just can't see it. They will be in bed with Honda.
