AUDI R18 TDI n.2

HISTORY

The 2011 Audi R18 TDI n.2 is the prototype with the guide Marcel Fassler, Andre Lotterer and Benoit Treluyer in the 2011 International Le Manc Champion. The R18 was very different from the previous car, the Audi R15 TDI. In aerodynamics, the biggest news was the use of the covered cab, after years of success with the opposite solution. The engine saw the abandonment of the V10 for the new V6.

At the 24 hours of Le Mans 2011 they won Lotterer, Fassler and Treluyer with the Audi R18 TDI n.2. The race saw the pursuit of the Peugeot 908 right on the Audi n.2, after the other two twin cars were forced to retire by accident. During the night Treluyer was decisive for the victory, distancing the Peugeot. The rest of the championship was not as exciting, in fact the french manufacturer won all the races of the ILMC world except Le Mans.
