The 24 Heures du Mans is virtually upon us, and the masters of the Sarthe over in Ingolstadt have a message for Porsche: “Welcome back.” This message, mind you, was delivered with a wholesome level of professionalism and decorum—by writing it by means of R18 e-tron burnout near Porsche’s facilities.
Porsche, of course, has won the darn issue with almost everything from the McQueen-dream 917K to the silhouette-racer 935 to the nominally-a-Neunelfer 911 GT1. And that is just the all round stuff. They’ve been racking up class victories since Ferdinand Piëch was in engineer’s short pants.
In reality, Porsche tends to make its Le Mans–dominant VW Group counterparts at Audi appear like relative neophytes in comparison. This year, ultimately, the 2 favored sons of Ferd go head-to-head on the storied Circuit de la Sarthe course in the LMP1 class.
To celebrate the entry of Porsche’s 919 Hybrid into the top-class fray, Audi’s produced a cute tiny video in which an R18 e-tron quattro winds its way from Bavaria to Baden-Württemburg, surprising passerby on the way. A runner gets a start off. An old Porsche tractor gets passed. A deer inexplicably does not run out in front of the vehicle. Then the Audi lays the automotive equivalent of a flaming bag of canine feces at Porsche’s doorstep. Watch and get pleasure from.
