More on Cosworth

Cosworth is an automotive engineering company founded in London in 1958, specialising in engines for automobile racing (motorsport). It supplies a wide range of motorsport series, including the World Rally Championship, World Superbikes and, as of 2010, Formula One. Cosworth is based in Northampton, England, with a North American facility in Torrance, California.
Cosworth has had a long and distinguished career in Formula One beginning in 1963. Two Formula One teams were supplied with Cosworth engines in 2006: the Williams team using Cosworth V8 engines, transmissions, and associated electronics; and the Scuderia Toro Rosso team using rev-limited Cosworth V10s based on 2005 spec engines. The end of the 2006 F1 season marked the end of Cosworth's remarkable 43 year association with the series, as no team opted to use Cosworth for 2007. Cosworth will return to Formula One in 2010 as an engine supplier to three new teams, Team US F1, Campos Grand Prix and Manor Grand Prix. Cosworth is one of the most successful engine manufacturer ever to race in F1, second only to Ferrari in grand prix victories.
Cosworth was initially an independent company, then part of UEI and subsequently Vickers. Despite its long association with Ford, it was a subsidiary of Ford for only a very short time. The company was split into Technology and Racing divisions; the Racing division that retains the Cosworth name is now owned by Gerald Forsythe and Kevin Kalkhoven. The Technology division was briefly owned by Volkswagen and is now part of Mahle GmbH.
