I think Mercedes will continue to supply Force India. It's an important deal for F1's true minnows of today, because some McLaren personnel are now working with it to improve competitiveness and results. This is not just hiring a powerplant, like it would from Ferrari or even Cosworth, but a concerted effort to aid Force India's development in Formula One. Dr Mallya won't let this deal fall apart.
As for the rest - who knows? Cosworth engines are linked to the three newcomers, but if I had a team and needed a new engine, I'd probably be looking at a technical partnership with BMW. Perhaps I could even score a free driver in Nick Heidfeld!
