The end result in Silverstone was still better lap time than Porsche, but how will that strategy work in Spa and will they use it in LeMans too?

The third car from Audi is the one with the low downforce specifications I think. They've not confirmed what package they will run for the other cars but atleast one of them will be a low downforce package. I think either way the cars will be fast enough. Spa is a track where you can run either one of the specifications and get similar laptimes and with the new frontwings they are probably able to trim the car out a little more.
