From Audi Sport release
Audi will not be represented by its factory team Audi Sport North America in the American Le Mans Series in 2009.
Audi concentrates its motorsport programmes for the 2009 season on the new R15 TDI sport prototype for the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the re-worked racing touring car A4 DTM and the newly developed R8 LMS for customer use in the GT3 class.
As a result of its newly aligned motorsport programme Audi offers its motorsport customers a bespoke vehicle concept for the first time.
Audi Sport developed the new R8 LMS specifically to suit the user-friendly and cost-effective requirements in the production-based GT3 class in international motorsport. The powerful 500 hp plus race car based on the Audi R8 is due to be delivered in order to prove itself on track throughout the 2009 season.
The American Le Mans Series involvement will not be continued.
