Audi is expected to shut down its customer racing division after the 2023 racing season, including its involvement in the DTM and other GT3 categories with the R8 LMS. Full story ⬇️
According to Autosport’s sister website Motorsport-Total.com, there are plans to close Audi Sport Customer Racing at the end of the current season to allow the marque to prioritise its upcoming entry into Formula 1 in 2026.
It is understood that the board finally issued instructions towards the end of last year to close its customer racing division following the conclusion of the 2023 season. Audi Sport Customer Racing includes the GT2, GT3 and GT4 variants of the R8 LMS as well as the TCR programme with the RS 3 LMS. When Rolf Michl took over from Seebach as the head of Audi Sport, there was hope that he would be able to safeguard the future of its customer racing activities.
The future of Audi’s customer division remains under threat despite a successful 2022 season in which it achieved 290 individual victories and 76 titles. The very same year, Audi produced the 300th R8 LMS GT3, which remains one of the most successful GT3 cars ever made.
