    I like this version better than the old R15...

    They are chasing Peugeot now.....so the money is being spent on new bits and pieces...

    ...but we also looked at details like improved night time lighting of the track. We were able to meet this wish of the drivers with a new headlight concept."


    Is it my imagination, or is that a triple light arrangement?

    I've often wondered, but have never asked, is there a regulation which limits the maximum brightness of headlights in sports car racing?

    yes, it appears to be 3 lights along with the "christmas lights"

    I also quite like it, I though would like to see more photos of the car

    It is slightly better looking than the original, but is still poor compared to the R8 and R10

    it's not a beauty, but it isn't an eyesore.

    however, Audi won't be concerned about looks. Speed and Success of a racing car markets better than looks, which is ironic considering on road cars looks are important.
    Congratulations Sebastian Vettel. Champion of the season of seasons.
