This is true. What else was he supposed to do? Either hope that they'd come back or have to find another.
The thing that is promising about RBPT is that they have from what I read, 150 Honda engineers who know the current engine, and all the top guys from MB initial hybrid engine. They have all the right pieces and people in place to do it. Plus the new engine is much more similar to the current powertrain than the switch from NA to hybrid.
