Goodwood is the place to be for motorsport enthusiasts this weekend. Annually this famous British venue is the home of an impressive meeting, featuring great cars and brands. From Formula One to Le Mans Prototypes, Rally cars and more. As per usual Audi was very well represented. A massive presence from Audi UK and Audi Tradition. A selection of Audi cars were on display for the delight of the British racing fans.
Here is a great set of photos from Goodwood by our friend Phil Laughton.
The 2013 FIA World Endurance Championship held its season opener, the 6 Hours of Silverstone, last weekend. Audi dominated the event with a fantastic 1-2 victory. During the British WEC weekend, Audi UK gave their fans the opportunity to interact with Audi Sport factory drivers and ask them questions. A few days later Audi UK shared the best selected questions and shared the drivers answers in a very attractive visual style. Here are the four chosen questions with answers from Loic Duval, Allan McNish, Tom Kristensen, Benoit Treluyer and Oliver Jarvis.
The Audi quattro rooms were opened by Audi UK in London three years ago. An unique 2000m2 facility used for meetings, receptions and more. The facilities hosts some Audi cars as well, including racing models. Most of the race cars raced under the British banner and the name of "Audi Sport UK", such as the 1999 Audi R8C GTP, Frank Biela’s victorious Audi A4 quattro Super Touring car from the BTCC and the 2004 Audi R8 of Audi Sport UK Team Veloqx. Amoung the British based Audi racers the Audi R10 TDI and the Audi R18 TDI are also there, along with an Audi Quattro S1 as well.
Special thanks to Audi UK who provided us with these beautiful photos.
The Audi UK Facebook page recently asked their fans to send in question for the "Facebook interview" with Allan McNish. A week after the request for questions the Audi UK page has posted the interview with McNish on Youtube. A few of the fan’s questions were chosen and the Scotsman McNish sits down in this video to answer those questions. Here is the video with one of the most popular Audi factory drivers, enjoy:
