Low-drag 2015 Audi R18 e-tron quattro revealed
This weekend’s 6 Heures de Spa-Francorchamps will see the debut of the 2015 Audi R18 e-tron quattro in low-drag guise.
It features subtly revised bodywork that’s intended for high-speed tracks including Le Mans. Compared to the high-downforce version, changes include a redesigned nose section, different side pods and modified rear wing supports.
