Ultimate endurance testThe new Audi R8 LMS

In the course of the further development of the Audi R8 LMS, an ultimate endurance test is on the agenda for the new GT3 sports car of AUDI AG at the end of May: On May 23/24, teams ABT Sportsline and Phoenix Racing, with
“factory” support by Audi, will field a total of four cars in the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring.

“The 24 Hours is not only one of the biggest motorsportevents in Germany,” says Head of Audi Motorsport Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich. “The Nürburgring-Nordschleife is considered one of the world’s toughest and most demanding race tracks. Similar to Sebring for the sports prototypes, it is superbly suited for revealing the final
improvement potential of any new race car. This is exactly what we’re planning to do at the 24-hour race before delivering the R8 LMS to customers, starting this fall.”
