Congratulations are in order for our friend Eric Gilbert from Motorsport.com who's won the The Sarthe Endurance Photo competition with this beautiful shot of two Audi R18s slicing through the quiet French countryside during pre-race practice last June.

It's been more than a season since British-born Katherine Legge departed from her seat with the Audi Sport DTM squad and we've just got word that she's landed a new multi-year deal.

To say Peugeot's exit from Le Mans and the WEC was abrupt is an understatement. As mentioned in the report surrounding the Lion's departure published yesterday, the move came so out of the blue that even Peugeot Sport may not have known as the team had planned a test of the new 908 HYbrid4 later this week at Sebring.

Out to Infineon for a shoot on a Ferrari, the guys at eGarage found themselves in a bit of a pinch. The Ferrari's motor blew and was a no-show, but another car they found in the paddock fit the bill. Seems the boys from Eurospec were there with their 1988 Audi 200 quattro Trans-Am.
