Tribute video to the legendary Audi R8 Le Mans winner


By Johan Laubscher

For many Audi fans, myself included, when you think of Le Mans you think of one car, and only one car. The car that took Audi’s first Le Mans win and went on to collecting four more triumphs at Le Mans. The car that remained the car to beat for six years, six years is a lifetime in a race car’s lifespan and this car remained the car to beat until new rules finally retired it from its dominance. This can only be one car: the legendary Audi R8.

This video by DTMEnthusiast on youtube is a few years old now but it still successfully captures the Audi R8’s spirit at Le Mans, it remains one of my favourite videos and one that Audi fans will really enjoy. It is a tribute to the car I call the “good old girl” which to this day is one of my favourite all time race cars. Enjoy the video:
