Audi R10 TDI wins at Le Mans and the title in the ALMS

In extremely difficult conditions AUDI AG continued its impressive winning streak in the 24-Hour Race at Le Mans. Frank Biela (Germany), Emanuele Pirro (Italy) and Marco Werner (Germany) repeated their triumph from last year to clinch Audi’s seventh victory in the French endurance classic.

Dindo Capello (Italy) and Allan McNish (Great Britain) again secured the drivers’ title in the American Le Mans Series for Audi. In addition, Audi and the team of Audi Sport North America won the manufacturers’ and the teams’ classification.

Recognising the sign of the times

While alternative power sources in Formula 1 have only just become the subject of discussion, the organisers of the 24 Hours of Le Mans recognised the sign of the times significantly earlier. They encourage automobile manufacturers to develop more economical and quieter engines – such as the 650 hp V12 power-unit propelling the Audi R10 TDI, which consumed almost five litres less fuel per hundred kilometres on the way to its historical Le Mans victory than the Audi R8 and its equally economical TFSI engine during victory in 2002.
