Damn. A Diesel? I'm not historian, but I'd put decent money on a guess that that's never been done before.
Audi have stated they wish to be first team to win Le Mans with a diesel LMP1.

Two years ago, a deisel powered LMP1 raced at Le Mans. It didn't finish the race however.

1100 N-m is 811 foot pounds.

So long as it's not made at the Mexico plant, it'll be gravy.

Man that looks really intresting, and with the intrest shown by Peugot and a bunch of other manufacturers, it looks like P1 could finally become something intresting again in Le Mans

Incredible place to watch a race.

Even better racing on it yourself though
