Hows about Audi France assisting Mr Pescarolo into the latest Audi P1 challenger...
With the right commercial budget and pilots (please bring back Mr Loeb..), it would make for an interesting comparison to the works Audis... and create some conversation in France, and around the world about the Audis..
Audi winning all the time unfortunately blunts the impact of their marketing efforts around the race, as it has now become 'expected' rather than fought for.
You might imagine too, if Porsche follows its previous lineage, that customer versions of its LeMans racer should be available to preferred customers at some stage. The backbone of Group C were the 956 & 962s in mostly private hands after all...
