LMP1 for 2009

As international endurance racing begins its 2009 season, all the major prototype manufacturers have revealed their plans. The most recent of these is Aston Martin who have developed their LMP1 together with Lola. In splendid orange and blue livery, two Gulf cars will run the LMS series and contest Le Mans.

Audi’s new R15 TDI will race alongside its R10 predecessor in 2009. It is specifically scheduled to race Le Mans and three other ALMS races. Finally more details and pictures of the R15 have surfaced before its main duel with Peugeot at the upcoming 12 Hours of Sebring.

Both Audi and Peugeot will face Acura in 2009 with their new ARX02. It will give gasoline-powered cars a chance at overall victory. We have some stunning new shots of the ARX02 to hold us over until the season begins.
