Motorsport Akutell (however it's spelled) are now also reporting rumors that Porsche may be leaving the WEC soon. The Porsche leaving LMP1 rumors do seem to be gaining traction since Dagys' cryptic tweet a couple of days ago.
As far as Audi being back before Peugeot? If Porsche leaves and VAG want a LMP1 presence, Audi or maybe Lamborghini (which Volkswagen Group put Audi in charge of) might be back in. And Peugeot, as we well know, will only be back if there's severe cost cutting, something that will make a return by Audi or an entry from Lamborghini easier.
However, I can't see either of these things (an Audi Sport/Lamborghini or Peugeot entry) before 2020.
It seems that the transition between regs weeding out factory teams and an entry slump is already happening.
