Sounds like Aston Martin are wanting at the minimum a sponsorship deal in F1 if not an actual team.
The key seems to be Redbull using Merc engines, but they are also looking at other teams.
Adrian Newey has been working with their design team since early this year on a road car project.
Interesting to see where this leads.
