This is the new Audi R8 LMS GT3 Evo, and you won"t see a hornier, angrier racecar today. It arrives at the Paris Motor Show just as its cousin the Lamborghini Huracan has received the same GT3 Evo treatment. Essentially, even racecars get mid-life facelifts. And in the R8"s case, it"s come before the road-going version. In fact, we"d suspect the reshaped lights and new bonnet nostrils of this GT3 Evo will appear on the facelifted R8 road car in the near future. On this LMS racer, though, those nostrils are key to new cooling measures to improve the durability of its parts, while a tweaked aerodynamic profile helps make its handling much more predictable and consistent.
