R3E Audi R18 LMP1 in the making

Sector3 revealed a new preview screenshot confirming that they are working on an Audi R18 LMP1 model for RaceRoom Racing Experience.

The screenshot shows us a cockpit view of the Audi LMP1 at the bottom of Eau Rouge on the world famous Belgian Spa-Francorchamps Circuit. It seems that work is shaping up nicely on both the track and the car, yet no estimated release date is known.

The Audi R18 is a Le Mans Prototype endurance car built by Audi AG. The original Diesel powered Audi R18 TDI LMP was introduced in 2011. Since then Audi Sport has developed two more evolutions of the car. In 2012, the Audi R18 ultra was introduced. Since 2013, the Audi R18 e-tron Quattro that is the hybrid version of the R18 Ultra has been the weapon of choice for the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) including the 24H of Le Mans.

It is not yet clear which version of the car is featured in the screenshot. If you figured it out, let us know.
