Watch The 2015 Audi R18 Take A Corner At 200+
Watch The 2015 Audi R18 Take A Corner At 200+-February 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:43

We’ve seen the before, but this is the first time we’re seeing it in its Le Mans configuration.... at 200+.

Audi has a thing for running Monza without its speed-cutting first chicane. The team just lets its cars shoot straight into the Curva Grande. This R18 is screaming along at 320 to 330 kp/h (198-205 mph), according to the guy who uploaded this test session video as in years past.

It’s amazing what Audi have done to get the car to work. has a great analysis of the body, a wonder the cornering speeds it can achieve even in this low downforce spec.

This High-Flying Porsche Macan Race Truck Exists And Now All Is Right With The World
I have but one ask of Porsche: everything they build needs to go racing. It doesn’t matter if we’re talking about the latest 911 or the new Panamera. It must go racing somewhere on principle. Otherwise, I won’t accept it as a Porsche. Behold, the Porsche Macan race truck that...
