I think you miss mine too, and it was the very essence (IMO) of Audi's failure at Le Mans this year. They did a fair bit of testing and very little racing. Peugeot learned from the more significant racing they did. Audi can test all day and night for weeks on end if they want to, but it won't replace racing against decent competition, overtaking loads of cars, encountering all the dumped oil and other detritus etc. etc. that simply can't be replicated in a test..... You need to test to win, of course, no doubt about that, but it'll never replace the data gained from actually taking on your competition head to head on the track....
