Audi and Porsche have little if anything left to prove until EV or hydrogen fuel cell or hydrogen hybrid cars come to the fore.

So I think that in the near future, it'd probably be Bentley or Lamborghini to get the nod for a potential LM program.
Toyota isn't noted for its performance cars either. VW vs Toyota makes sense.

Whatever, I would be very happy to have Bentley turn up.
