mmm audi has a "strange" policy about customer support.... the r10's sold to the kolles team had the engine detuned and hadn't the updates of official team; they sold purposely an uncompetitive car to don't let them run for first positions (maybe they feared that a private r10 could be faster than the old r15). I doubt that some other team will buy an audi "poor customer's" car (even if audi will do a customer program).
Different was peugeot last year, the #4 oreca 908 HDi was fully supported with updates and official drivers in LMS races, it was like the forth car of the official team.
About future plans of peugeot nobody knows, surely if they'll start a customers program, oreca will be the first choice for sure... i don't think they still trust in pescarolo after 2009 epic fails...
