Le Mans News

many people will be needing tissue's this season...

Stunning, cant belive ppl are saying its ugly!

Gorgeous!

gorgeous car, i think they could have done a better job on the front radiator but that's just me, very well could look a lot better once some paint gets on the machine but fair play ferrari, looks good!

Ferrari 458 GT2

motherofgod.

Audi R18 is to be launched tomorow, it will be a Diesel, and its expected to be a Hybrid too. The only question marks that remain are ''Coupe or Open'' and Engine size.

And I know the 458 has already been posted, but holy mary mother of god!

Michellen bloging website reporting coupe for r18, I heard its a petrol hybrid not a desiel hybrid, would be intresting plus news from VW group looks like Porsche will be the VW owned company at the top level of sport car racing soon, according to reportd porsche have been told they will be the company to devlop top flight sports cars and not audi, wheil audi will concentrate on its traddiontal brand of the a1 - a6 range only if audi was a separate company would love to see porsche and audi go head to head at lemans

would have been great to see i agree dunc but the futre is something that doesn't end so hopefully they have some sort of falling out in the future (like they did in the 70's) and start competing against one another.

Marshall Pruett on tweets this..

''Looking forward to Audi's R18 launch tomorrow. A wholesale change in concepts for the team with the new car. Very cool.''

Front of the 458 is shockingly poor looking.
Hopefully the R18 will be a closed coupe, in a reply to my own tweet he said:
"the new regs favor aero efficiency as the 2011 P1 cars no longer have the brute power to push them through the air."

To me that say closed coupe.

You have to love the rear overhang (or the lack of it) and those lovely gold BBS'

And yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a Coupe (or a ''Koop'' for our American listeners..)

readers mate

A look at the technical aspects of the 90X, plus a look at the 2011 version of the Dome S102, which looks georgeous!

This is a great site for a more technical, engineering-y look at Sportscar racing.

..found this posted on ForzaCentral..:



looks snake-like. hope to see a snake tongue or fangs on the car either in the ALMS/LMS or done in Fm4.

absurdly beautiful.

I'm a Porsche fanboy but I must say they need to step up there game if they want to compete with this beauty lol

As I've said everywhere else.... I hate the frnt end treatment. Hopefully the final version will be tape free and a lil better sorted.

Third time posted on the forums now...still looks just as amazing though

love the look of this!!

as long as its quick who cares what it looks like!

Audi have confirmed that the R18 is a Coupe.... I have no idea when it launches though..
