They are not kept "on the LMP1 program", they are kept within Audi Sport, and Audi itself. As Audi tries to position itself in the premier category, imagine the damage from them letting go 200 of their top engineers. Maybe not in layman's PR terms, but for the employees. I for one would expect my employer not to have me suffer for their mistakes, or, worse, scams. IMO, this is an - expected, and required - show of "class" from Audi. I'd expect nothing less. And this has nothing to do with "generosity", but more with an image damage of Audi, the employer, for prospective race-quality engineers.
