Are you kidding me? The R8 is one of the most beautiful race cars ever. Way better specs? The R8 is one of the most dominant cars in racing history. I think it was Top Gear who said it was the best racing car ever. While the R10 is sure to be great, it's got some huge shoes to fill. The R8 is a legend, plain and simple.

kinda looks like gm's autonomy concept

A racing diesel..this should be interesting.

It's an open secret that Audi wants to conquer Le Man's with a diesel engine - both for marketing purposes and just to prove a point with diesel-haters.

What will be interesting is if the R10 will be able to maintain the reliability of the R8.

What kind of specs do they allow for a diesel engine? I think this is a first.

Im aware that the R8 was known to be the best race car in history but the R10 is its "successor" so its bound to be better car....although, i do not know about reliability because of the desiel engine

I'm curious as well, but I guess we'll have to wait until tomorrow's presentation.

That's very interesting. I expect to see some additional advances in diesel performance from Audi, sooner or later, as a result of this.

I suppose we'll have to wait and see before people are convinced of its abilities, though.
