I don't see the costs coming down far enough with the regulations I've heard discussed and I do see that the opportunity to spend a fortune chasing down a tenth of a second a lap will remain," CEO, Andy Palmer told Autocar.

"It would be good if Porsche came in. The more competition, the more important the victories are for us," Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff said.
