But considering how Jaguar fared in F1, I wouldn't be surprised if they hit a few snags.

Oh,and given parent company Ford's financial state, where's the money coming from?
I thought they were hemorraging cash and pulled out of FI to cut their losses?
i was under the same impression regarding the jaguar f1 program. this seems like a marketing move similar to the f1 program. im guessing theyre attempting to bring in a younger crowd and give the appearance of being a performance leader just as bentley did before they released the continental gt. i would be more impressed if ford spent the money to create a serious contender in leMans with the ford GT....plenty of heritage behind that one.
