woah!


So that's why they stopped the R8 project a couple years back! Next years Le Mans maybe?

Thanks Stan!!

Yes, Audi will be out of the pace again.

The Pescarolo Judd couldn't win last year, it was their last chance. Now Audi will do again 1-2-3...

Edited
qwerty,

Yes it will race 2006 Lemans, and Sebring 12hs race on March.

it looks great but is it what sportscar racing needs? I really don't think so. Get some good privateer competitive racing going like we have had this year but now Audi will come back in and dominate again...

Sorry for the dumb question, but is it a rule that those prototype car should fake car for two people?

Isn't the driver allowed to be in the center of it and the car just have one (sorry I forgot the word for it, it's that thing that goes behind the drivers head)?

the driver can be off center, the 2nd thing behind his head is there just for better aero. IMO

I thought you disliked manufacturer support of F1 because they're all going to pull out in a few years when they stop winning?

no, its a rule that you now need 2 roll hoops

and in a few years there will be a rule that the car needs at least 4 seats, to make it legal the driver must have a wife and two kids and they will win the lemans like a happy familiy :p


serious: it's a stupid rule IMO, they could simply say that the car must have a roof and that would solve everything

Haven't LMP cars had to be able to seat 2 people for quite a while now, and as Andrew said the roll-hoop must now also cover the second "seat".

Why is this a problem? Nobody cared about Bentley coming back...
