Audi's trophy week

Audi guys only stopped celebrating in the days there were no racing this week, because if there was an Audi on track, there were victories.
Here are some facts about what the Ingolstadt manufacturer achieved this week:


-7 victories over the week: the 24 Hours of Le Mans and Nürburgring, Pirelli World Challenge's Road America double-header, EuroV8Series' Race 1 at Brno, FFSA GT Tour Race 2 at Spa, and a GTS class win at GT Open's Race 1 at Jerez;


-Into these 7 wins, 5 of them were achieved in a 24-hour timeframe, between June 21st and June 22nd: Nürburgring 24h, Pirelli World Challenge Race 2, EuroV8Series Race 1, GT Tour Race 2 and GT Open's Race 1 GTS class win;


-Three models were used on these wins: the R18 e-tron quattro LMP1, the R8 LMS Ultra and the RS5;


-Three different engine mountings were used: a V6(R18 e-tron quattro), a V8(RS5) and a V10(R8 LMS Ultra);



-The races were held on 2 different continents, and in 6 different countries: USA(North America), France, Germany, Spain, Belgium and Czech Republic(Europe);


-There were spent more than 52 hours on track(counting pit stops) to achieve all the 7 wins mentioned;


-4 different tire brands were used: Michelin(LM, Nürburgring, GT Tour), Dunlop(GT Open), Hankook(EuroV8) and Pirelli(World Challenge);

In fact, this is just a tiny bit of what Audi made to achieve their goals. And the happiness of everything involved is part of the result, as well the motivation to keep on going. Audi always competes to win, and no matter how much time or effort it takes, they always win. Congratulations to Audi.
