A New Year, a New Season of World Class Racing

That the Audi R18 TDI would dominate the prototype class this weekend was really no surprise. More like a diesel-powered rocket ship than a race car, the car truly is a technological marvel.

On the other hand the racing was neck-to-neck in the GT field, with BMW vs. Corvette vs. Ferrari vs. Porsche. The talent ran deep as some of the best drivers in the world fought with sprint-car pace for the entire 12 hour race.

Check out AmericanLeMans for race results and upcoming events.
