Audi straight up trolls Porsche's Le Mans Return :D

[Gwenbors]

Apparently Audi has decided to celebrate the return of Porsche to the Circuit de la Sarthe with what might be the greatest commercial I've ever seen.

I saw that and my jaw was just hanging.

Before I actually watched the video when I got home, I saw the article on CarThrottle at school and I thought "Oh crap. This is going to be one huge "Eff you" to Porsche."

 

[Parker]

That was awesome. Well done Audi, well done.

 

[PsuPepperoni]

CarThrottle

just seeing that name makes me rage

Well at least after next weekend Audi can say they are winners at trolling because they wont be saying 2014 24h Le Mans winners

 

[Cano]

Ha! The Porsche tractor is a great touch.

 

[Imari]

That was great. A nice little dig but done with class. I wish more companies would take their rivalries with a nudge and a wink like this.

Means Audi > Porsche in the 21st Century.

Now I really want to see Audi get beat this year.

Can just imagine Porsche being slighty irritated at this. But I'd laugh if whilst they're squabbling, Toyota beat them both.

Oh, they will.
Even without this inter-group banter they have the upper hand in the championship...and evidently quite a powerful car too.
Will this finally be their year :') After years of getting trolled out they're the slight favourites for this.

Nah, it actually adds some cachet to Porsche as much as to Audi.

That really doesn't mean much since Audi basically live for this one race even if it means losing the rest of them. Porsche is no different and Nissan now seem to be glazed with the idea of winning the 24 hours. Notice how none of these groups give a mention of winning the WEC championship while they're at it.

Porsche has a handful of "bomber escorts" to help them out.

Superb video. The letters in the ground are not very realistic though.

Because they're CGI so that they can issue it in several languages, I guess? I think the advert's meant to be a joke, even I'm not that autistic

OT: I posted this in this year's Le Mans thread but it goes here too I guess.

"#1 Audi sneaks up on Porsche, Porsche (curves) sneak up on #1 Audi in revenge";
