Wow, they're really committed to beat Audi this year... hats off!!!

Looks like there is a chance of a non-VAG-car taking overall win this year. I bet Audi will also enter a third car at Le Mans

The third car is subject to invitation. ;D But seeing as it's French...

OK, the third car for both Audi and Peugeot needs an invitation - but I've never seen the ACO recject an entry of a big manufactorer - although sometimes this would have been better (LMP-Cadillac, what a disgrace!).
Hope there will be still enough slots for the good privateers and smaller teams in LMP1 left...
