The secrets of performance are written on the racing line.
Wing angles and downforce, shock pressures and spring rates, weight distribution and power-to-weight ratios, the threshold of grip, power: how to create it and put it to the ground. We race because there's no better way to find the limits of engineering-and no better way to apply decades of knowledge to build cars for drivers who take serious performance seriously.
We push the boundaries in these key areas and then splice them together to build exceptional, all-around performers.
A passion for sculpting power.Ā
Design isn't just for form, it's also an emotional expression of how to look at, and feel, the passion imbued in the vehicle. Through more muscular shapes and dramatic lines, Audi Sport designers are inspired to give shape to power while connecting our race cars to our street vehicles.

High-speed streaming is the result of wind tunnel vision.
We spend countless hours watching which way the wind blows. Directing air flow to create downforce, reduce lift, cool the brakes, and feed air to the engine requires precise shaping of spoilers, vents and intakes. Optimizing aerodynamics in the wind tunnel helps prevent a drag on performance.

With great power comes great exhilaration.
The engines of Audi Sport take their power seriously. Where the 5.2-liter FSI(r) V10 in our R8 V10 performance Coupe and R8 V10 performance Spyder is the most powerfully naturally-aspirated engine we've ever built - resulting in a redline of 8,700 rpm - the new V8 twin-turbo motor of our new RS models help sculpt their thrilling performance.
Motorsport History
A legacy of victory repeating itself.
Winning didn't come easy, but as you can see, we found our way to the front. Whether it was on gravel or asphalt, with quattroĀ® all-wheel drive traction or by turning up the boost, Audi Sport engineering turned trophy collecting into a family tradition.
