Asiatech currently supplies Minardi engine
Formula 1 engine supplier Asiatech is going ahead with plans to build a complete car for next year according to this week's AUTOSPORT magazine.
The French-based company has always maintained its desire to become a full-blown constructor and is pushing ahead with plans to build its own chassis, which it could be prepared to sell to another team.
Former Ferrari designer is working on the chassis and has already begun testing windtunnel models.
"Our ambition in the long run is clearly to have an integrated team, co-designing engine and chassis ? just as Scalabroni lived and experienced at Ferrari," said Asiatech's finance director John Gano in an interview earlier this season. "We will be happy when we achieve that one day."
