Next year's winner is...
« on: October 15, 2003, 09:19:48 am »
Hi everybody,

I just got hold of a top-secret VAG document with their motorsport-schedule for the rest of the decade:

2004: Audi wins Le Mans
2005: Seat wins Le Mans
2006: Bugatti wins Le Mans
2007: VW wins Le Mans
2008: It's Bentley's turn again...
2009: Lamborghini wins Le Mans
2010: Again Audi wins Le Mans......;-)

Let's hope some serious competitors show up, otherwise this might become the nasty future...
I don't want to knock the Audi- and Bentley-boys, but the last 4 years have been rather boring, haven't they?

Cheers

Werner

hoping that the car would break down. I came away in love with the place." - Eddie Irvine

Take your point Werner, but this years result was just fine for me.  ;D

I appreciate what you're saying Werner with regard to there being such strong favourites to win each year, but that said, the atmosphere this year with the Bentley win was fantastic!!

And its still nice to see a major car manufacterer going racing, the rest are too caught up in F1 at the mo.

I'm not sure about LMP but take a look at the left for a picture of next year's GT winner. ;D

I don't care - I'm a racing driver and I'm here to win, not to finish third.
