Audi already started the development of the R15, so why will this be stopped? If Audi stops with LMP1, they only have DTM. Where would they go instead?

Diesels will still have power advantage in the beginning of the year. Perhaps after Sebring, ACO will restrict the diesels even further.

Acura has suffered? Please check http://www.americanlemans.com/Compet....aspx?Class=P2. Acura is leading the manufacturer championship and Brabham/Sharp are only 4 points behind Bernhard/Dumas in drivers championship.
