2010 Audi R15

And the best of all:

The pictures were done by graphic designer Kim Stapleton as a design study of what the R15 may look like. I had thought that they were originally going to keep the car as a open cockpit design, but from these pictures it looks to be otherwise.

It is gonna be open cockpit I think. They originally were gonna make it mandatory for all LMP1 cars to be closed cockpit for 2010, however that rule was changed after about a month and I believe Audi said they were going to continue the open cockpit concept

Just ALMS...

This is the future. I love the closed cockpit cars from the late '90s like the CLK-GTR and CLR, the 911 GT1, McLaren F1 GTR, etc.

I am looking forward to seeing them at Sebring in March. Most likely the only time they will be in the US unless they run a Petit.
