What a strange comment. Sure, the ALMS is at a different level of competition to the LMS in terms of the number of cars likely to contest the overall win, but there is but one natural adversary for the Audi, and that's Peugeot. Perhaps the opportunity to go head to head with another manufacturer competing with a car built to, and raced subject to, the same set of rules, appeals more.
Is it not the case that in Europe he will enjoy what you refer to as ACTUAL COMPETITION, whereas in the ALMS he races to an IMSA manipulated set of rules put in place to create FALSE COMPETITION between the prototype classes?
