Full Speed Ahead For Audi, R10 TDI In 2007 American Le Mans Series



Audi reconfirmed its plans today to contest the balance of the 2007 American Le Mans Series season beginning with this weekend’s Acura Sports Car Challenge of St. Petersburg. The German manufacturer is trying for its eighth consecutive LMP1 championship with a pair of diesel-powered R10 TDIs that are unbeaten in eight American Le Mans Series starts plus a win last season at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Audi will battle prototypes from Acura, Porsche, Lola, Creation and Mazda for the overall victory this weekend.

“The diesel racing commitment in the American Le Mans Series is important for promoting diesel engines in America, ” said Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich, Head of Audi Motorsport. “That’s why we decided to continue competing in the American Le Mans Series. “
