Is Silence the New Sexy? (Audi R18 Test)

Noise, or really the lack thereof, has been one of themes of 2014. I’m not really going to get into it all that much, but I’ll leave you with one question.

|Trailer|- “Truth in 24 II”= Mega news!

In 2009, Audi released a documentary called ‘Truth in 24’, which highlighted their attempt to win the 24 Hours of LeMans outright. The titanic battle between Audi and Peugeot came to such worldwide acclaim that a second one will be released later this year. Super psyched!

Interview with Allan McNish- Post LeMans Crash

Almost two weeks ago, Alain McNish had a sickening crash (video) in his R18 prototype at LeMans. Alain survived the crash, thankfully, and was able to provide an interview of what happened just hours later.

Alain’s safety was ensured thanks to the strong design of the Audi, in an accident that would have killed him 10 years earlier.
