They don't sell cars in the US, so there's not the same marketing draw for them as there is for Audi. Couple that with the fact that at Road Atlanta, where Audi has reams of experience and they have none, they are unlikely to win, and you don't have a recipe for a cross-Atlantic trip to the north. Yes, they are going to Brazil we'd assume, but you can still save money by not swinging through N. America if you don't want to race.
I think we'll have to wait on a much closer date before seeing how many Euro teams actually show though. Budgets have a way of tightening by season's end.
