Nobody knows whether ACO got the performance balance correct from the first time. In the rules I see that the restrictor size for diesel powered car is the same (2 x 33.5 mm) for 2010 and 2011 cars, only the turbo boost is different. So it is difficult to tell how much less power the R15 will produce compared to the new Peugeot.
Of course Audi can rely on the R15's reliability, good visibility in traffic and driver change advantage (under IMSA's 2 air guns rule) to compensate for a possibly slower race pace.
