Thanks Ben!
Anyone knows WHY is Audi NOT testing the new car? Peugeot is testing before Le Mans....kinda surprised me that Audi did not.
Saludos!

Not "ready" in time. They had it practice there with the R15+ back in February but decided not to run it for the race... problems perhaps?

And Peugeot is still faster, even with the smaller V8 engine...this is frustrating now. I really hope R18 will bring some extra pace maybe from it's coupe chassis or i don't know, but it is the fourth year in a row, when Audi is always trying to catch up behind Peugeot.

Yeah, watched the whole thing. Audi had a bunch of incidents that cemented the loss for them. As for Peugeot, the one that was supposed to win finished 3rd and behind Audi. Malmut was not supposed to be the winning Pug! Also, it was awesome to see Honda of all things almost handing Pug the massive upset. It came down to the very last pit cycles and in the end, Honda only finished one minute back from the overall win!
As for GT, I'm sure BMW was very pleased to come in ONE-TWO beating out all the myriads of Porsches and Ferraris. Not to mention the two Corvettes. Job very well done for Team Rahal! :cheers:
