fiend540 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
While you can't replicate good race experience with a car during a test session, you don't gain anything showing up to a race with a car that isn't for the most part fully prepared. Going out on a limb here but it seems that the r15 is receiving more than the typical winter upgrades and it appears that Audi doesn't feel confident that the car will be ready enough to race come Sebring. Instead they are going to do a bunch of testing to sort the car, and then hit up the race at SPA which frankly makes way more sense if your goal is to win at Lemans.

As a fan it sucks that we won't see them at Sebring, but the racer in me understands why they chose to skip it this year.
