The Original LMP1 Audi R8 - Like You've Never Seen It Before!

These days if you mention R8, people will almost certainly think of the Audi supercar. But that was named for another, earlier car. The one which went to Le Mans, and showed that Audi were a force to be reckoned with.
I'm finishing my mini series on Audi race cars with an in-depth look at a real, Le Mans campaigned race car. It's pretty cool, and we take the covers off!

Thank you, and Audi UK, very much for making this video (and the others) happen! To a racing enthusiast like me it is pure heaven to see a racing car as successful as this one in such detail. ps: Toyota found out things go wrong at Le Mans in pretty much every single year they tried; their history of losing Le Mans with the fastest car is nothing short of astonishing.

[@csonkaperdido]

It's not just "told" that Audi changed the entire rear of the car in 3 minutes - there's video proof of them doing it here on KZbin. It wasn't just the transaxle (transmission +differential combined)... It was the suspension mounting points and basically the entire rear of the car, minus the engine. I think it was a complete rear subframe.

[@Cornwall1888]

Could you do a comparison with this and my Dacia Sandero 1.5dCi (midnight blue)?

Did Dacia offer a racing stripe package? If not, it's not even a real car. If so - it's an absolute racing beast with at least 362hp. If you don't think racing stripes add power, fight me.

Awesome job. Your enthusiasm is great to see. I was there at Sebring in 2000 when the R8 won on its debut. At that time no one knew that we had witnessed the coronation of what would be the most significant prototype of the decade and would establish itself alongside the Porsche 962 as an all time great. All through the 2000's I was at every Sebring 12hour and petit Lemans. Every time the main question was, "Will anyone challenge the Audis". And generally speaking, at those two events, no one ever could.

[@johncarey4040]

I just recently purchased my first old Audi project car and I am loving it. I admit that watching all your video content has certainly influenced my decision to become part of the Audi family

[@Noise-Bomb]

There is something about these cars that just tickles a special part of my brain. It's the shire simplistic nature of the goal of being the fastest combined with the hugely complex task of getting there. There is pragmatism combined with huge human and mechanical effort. It's beauty for the needs sake not for the beauty sake. Simple yet complex. Brute force and elegance in one. Power and balance in an incredible harmony just for the simple task of arriving faster or going further than the competition. No BS, no show just GO! And that's beautiful.

[@DogQiano]

Most beautiful R8 ever Made. Love that livery!

[@djchocice]

Great video, I’ve only seen it run in anger once in 2005 and it’s a properly special thing to see driven on the limit. The extra crash structure for the rollover protection was supposedly added after Michaele Alboretto was killed in a testing accident at the Lausitzring when the car rolled at high speed.

[@user-rl9mn6cy9s]

[@klubstompers]

Buy a bug. 7 minute engine swap.

[@Massegainer]

Oh, so you want us to change a lightbulb for 5 Euro? Fine, but first we have to take off the Frontbumper and take out the headlight, that makes it 505 Euros...

[@bhaggen]

@Mark Chippendale.....Wish all you want; but you'd refuse to pay for the upfront costs

[@iMadrid11]

Quick exchangeable modular component parts costs money. If you look at desktop PC vs. an enterprise server. The server has redundancy in mind with hot-swappable hard drives, fans & power supplies. So in case a component breaks there’s fall over backup that won’t completely shutdown the computer. You could replace the broken hard drive, fan or power supply and the server without shutting down the computer. Sort of like endurance racing in Le Mans. Your domestic car or PC doesn’t really need quick service repairability. Since your domestic car isn’t racing and your PC doesn’t need 24/7 uptime availability. So all those modular components isn’t necessary and will just drive up costs. Domestic cars are also engineered and optimized for quick factory production line assembly.

[@bzdtemp]

@@Massegainer I think there is a Renault where one has to remove the wheel and inner fender to get at the light bulb. The "worse" one I have come in contact with was an Corsa, on that one had to remove the air box to change the head light bulb (I can not remember if it was the left or the right side).

[@fidelcastro9579]

Great video. I was at Le Mans in 2002 and 2003 so witnessed what you said. The Bentley sounded like a hoover in comparison to everything else. Can you do a similar feature on the Porsche 917? For me, it is arguably the greatest race car ever made. Keep up the excellent content. 👏

David Brabham said he was blown away when trying the R8. The Panoz was a great car - and still managed to win (some) races against the Audis - but he very quickly noticed how much of a difference having 3x the budget makes, as it was piss easy to get ridiculously competitive laptimes with it.

[@jstoli996c4s]

That Panoz had to be absolutely manhandled to go fast, and Brabham & Magnussen did just that. But yeah the R8 was on a different level.

[@qidydl]

It's not just "told" that they replaced the rear end in minutes, you can still find the original TV coverage on KZbin of them doing it for the first time at Le Mans. If you like seeing these cars up close, you should definitely attend the races. I'm not sure if it's different in Europe, but in the IMSA series in North America, every ticket counts as a paddock pass, and it's not hard to get up pretty close with the cars and drivers.

[@arkeusalexander9054]

The true monster is just behind you : 3 Audi R15+ TDI finishing respectively with 397, 396 and 394 laps at Le Mans 2010 (397 laps being the Absolute record up to this).

[@Flu_Tang_Clan]

In 2003 Audi was under strict orders not to push the Bentley's. It was clearly a marketing ploy and further reinforces the fact that they were really R8s under the skin.

[@soty391]

This is dream collection for me...all this Le mans cars with a4, 80... just perfect

[@andrewharper4296]

Some really nice videos, I’ve seen the cars close up at classic events and they are truly works of art with incredible attention to detail. Couple of points which people may find interesting. The whole modular approach was kind of stopped by the ACO to some extent. They didn’t like the rear axle change system as they felt changing that much of the car was a bit too much of an advantage. The rule was changed in that you can not replace the gearbox casing anymore. Secondly with regards to aero. For sure if anyone has seen the latest LMP2’s or LMP1’s naked they are very much like a single seater underneath now. Just incredible. The air is channeled so much now through the body rather than over it. Lastly I could be wrong but maybe the rollover hoop modification was due to the accident with Michele Alboreto. During testing the first version of the car it took off and landed on its roof. The impact just crushed the roll hoop and he didn’t survive. I think the car landed on a guard rail but I could be wrong. Very sad and a tragic loss. Still a pretty safe race car though. I’ve seen some huge accidents recorded in the R8 and the driver walked away, that flat bottom though was always a danger. However you’ll notice on the R15 the regulations were changed and the cars were mandated to have two roll over structures.

[@OsellaSquadraCorse]

Sadly, Michele went over the guardrail at the Lausitzring. The first impact took off the rollhoop, so it wasn't there when it hit again on the guardrail, before landing on the access road around the oval. Sad day, Michele was SUCH a nutcase off the track, and a great driver on it; really in his element in sportscars. I'm always reminded of him when I see Patrese return to historic and GT racing: Michele tried to persuade Riccardo to 'un-retire' and join him at Le Mans in the late 90's, but Riccardo said he was finished with competitive racing.

[@klubstompers]

Super cool, i enjoyed all 4, but liked the r8, and the A4 the most. Kind of defeats the purpose of showing off a scale model of a race car, when we all want to see the engine and all the components, whether its a rep or the real deal. Awesome content!!

[@R-Tap]

Great selection of Audi Sport vid's, pity none of them could be run. Would have loved to hear that R8 cold start.

[@bhaggen]

A "cold start" on a race-car like this isn't nearly as simple & quick as one might imagine

[@paredding]

Biela running out of fuel was actually part of an Audi own DVD...Followed the R8s right back to 1999 when they ran R8R and R8C's. A great era (esp battling with the Toyotas and Peugeots) which we thought would go on for ever. Feel priviledged to have been part of it looking back...BTW who gives a thumbs down on this? If you dont like, dont watch...

[@robertmiller6444]

I saw the R8 racing in the states back in the day. I think it was ALMS at the time after IMSA imploded. One of my favorite sports car prototype race cars of all time. #1 has to be the 962. #2 is the Sauber C11. #3 and #4 are the Mercedes CLK-GTR and the Audi R8. Not sure which I like better.

I was standing in the tribunes across from the pits at Le Mans in 2000 when they did that very gearbox change. The astonishment from the commentators and actually watching it unfold was incredible. Rules changed the next year to outlaw such major sub-assemblies being swapped out (needed to finish with the same gearbox case, engine block and other key components that you started with IIRC) but Audi made an overnight step-change in how to run an endurance outfit and prepare to win.

[@jstoli996c4s]

Mr Shug same with witnessing it on tv. Mind blowing 🤯

[@OsellaSquadraCorse]

Joest deserve a LOT more credit than Audi do for that one.. Their role in understanding how to win Le Mans; how to run and how to beat works teams, and for the first time being able to work with a manufacturer in developing a car from scratch was invaluable. Joest designed that quick-change, not Audi, using the lessons learned from 20+ years of racing (or beating) Porsche.

[@OsellaSquadraCorse]

R8R and R8C. Though the R8R was a bit of a late start, they were both entered for Le Mans 1999; only the Roadster finished, and the Coupe was dropped, with the R8R concept taken forward to become the R8. The R8C was the first Audi LMP designed and built though.

[@Yardliver]

Funny typo... The "Veloqx Partners" decals on the front bodywork... Velolqx... lol How is that possible during a restoration like that? :D

[@MidnightMechanic]

It's built so well, that the modular design is actually banned. Having it built in 3 parts made it too easy for teams to basically rebuild the car from scratch while other teams struggled or just plain retired after a component failure. Audi was dominating on the track so well, that's why they were forced to change the nose on the R15, and still won anyway. Their foray into TDI warranted excellent reliability results, and set the pace for Diesel Hybrid technology that every hybrid road car should be using to this day. And the tech was already there with Volkswagen's Diesel electric hybrid concept car that was supposed to compete against the Prius. Elon Musk is an idiot for not realizing this.

All great cars from different eras. Anything adorned with Wiggins clamps does it for me. It's a shame though that Audi don't support their heritage road cars with availability of parts like some other marques do. Perhaps you could have a word in their ear :)

[@bradarsenault6984]

@@joedmac78 joedmac78 yes, that is a sort of like a sway bar, they are more commonly referred to as anti roll bars in this application but basically the same thing. instead of being attached to the lower control arm, like on a typical road car, it's attached to the bellcrank. If one wheel is pushed up, like what happens when weight is shifter in a corner and the body rolls, the other wheel will also be pushed up, to resist the body roll. If you look at the link that attaches the two sides you will notice there are 3 holes to attach the rod end to, allowing more it less leverage over the pivot. Those rod ends are usually adjustable as well, either to allow for or influence ride height. The details of it are beyond my knowledge of the overall adjustment lengths of the individual links, though.
