Could the changes to the '12 R18 that we've seen may've been done to allow the installation of an inerter on the front suspension?
It has been suspected that enhancing mechanical grip (and issue that Audi had with the R15 and possibly the R18 last year) in low to medium speed corners has been a possible aim if the front suspension has been modified, which it seems to have been. Part time AWD or not, it seems that Audi may've been doing that, possibly with an eye to TMG's F1 experience with the J-damper--Audi can't be ignorant of what the J-damper can do and what it's limitations/advantages can be.
