For the 75th running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Audi may have never been in a better position as it packed its transporters and headed to La Sarthe. As the dominant victor of the 24 Hours of Le Mans for almost a decade, the Ingolstadt-based car manufacturer returned to France fielding no less than three R10s (#1, #2, #3) – something it hadn’t done since 2002. With these three cars, they also brought two driver teams of veteran works drivers and a single team of experienced “rookies”. Audi’s fate at Le Mans looked promising indeed.
The other problem with RLM during the race was bandwidth. I was having trouble listening to it in my hotel room in Le Mans when I went back for a few hours to sleep. (yeah, I did go back to the hotel for a few hours. I'm lame I know).
