Luhr leaves DTM and goes to R10.
Lineup for Le Mans is the same as this year:
- Biela/Pirro/Werner
- Capello/Kristensen/McNish
- Luhr/Prémat/Rockenfeller
From reading the following, I get the impression that Capello, McNish, Werner and Luhr will do ALMS, as this is

Regular drivers for the sportscar project in the 2008 season will be Dindo Capello, Allan McNish, Marco Werner and Lucas Luhr, the latter moving from the DTM to the Audi R10 TDI. Meanwhile Frank Biela and Emanuele Pirro, the two longest serving and most experienced Audi factory drivers, compete again with the R10 TDI. Audi also wishes to commit the experienced duo to the brand for the long-term as a result of their unstinting service and loyalty to Audi after their active careers.

The DTM lineup does not change. Abt retires and Luhr goes to R10, so 2 new drivers are needed to drive the 2007 cars. One pilot (presumably female) will be paid by Audi to race for Futurecom, like Ickx did the previous years.
