IMSA/WEC: Ford likely to provide domestic, international P2 power in 2017

Ford Racing boss Jamie Allison isn't ready to confirm the Blue Oval's participation in P2 when the new global specification arrives for 2017, but he says there's a strong likelihood its P2-derived twin-turbo V6 EcoBoost Daytona Prototype engine will continue after DPs are phased out after the 2016 season.

"The [TUDOR United SportsCar Championship] has declared its position; one of the foundations of IMSA is the alignment and the adaptation of the FIA and the ACO around the classes. Obviously, we are a global company with global platform and global powertrain technologies and global vehicle lines. As a global company, we really would like to be involved in global adaptations and global cross applications," he told RACER in his classic, carefully-worded style.

2017? I know it doesnt fit TUSC timeframe, but they could have something out late next year if they wanted to, I would think.
