The sights and sounds of Audi Sport testing at Monza - R18 ultra & R8 LMS ultra



By Johan Laubscher

It is no secret: Audi Sport has been at Monza in Italy this week testing both the R18 ultra and the R8 LMS ultra. From the photos and videos that have been appearing online it seems that there is one of each car present at Monza. Early reports have stated that the R18 at the test is an e-tron, however Fourtitude have confirmed that the #3 Audi R18 at the tests is indeed an Audi R18 ultra. Read more on that story HERE.

Some great videos have been appearing from the test. Bellow are some great photos are two awesome videos from NM2255 on youtube, that allow us to hear the absolutely awesome V10 of the R8 LMS ultra and the very unique sound of the R18 ultra. The R8 LMS ultra video is well worth watching, the V10 on the rev limiter is an absolutley spine-tingling sound to hear.

Turn up your speakers for the videos!
