Audi RS 3 LMS TCR
The New Audi TCr
Audi Sport customer racing unveils the successor to its successful RS3 LMS model for 2021.
The second generation of the entry-level touring car model, which has been improved in many areas, is set to continue a series of great successes of the first generation in international TCR touring car racing.
Audi Sport modelled and designed the aerodynamics entirely through digital Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations, rather than using a conventional wind tunnel – a first for the brand.
