Winner of the Nurburgring 24 Hours

Audi takes their third win, and second straight triumph in the Nurburgring 24 Hours!  But, a new team, (for this race) is at the top, in the 45th edition.  Veteran Audi GT3 team Belgian Audi Club Team WRT (which has won the Spa 24 Hours before), emerges victorious in the 2015 Nurburgring 24 Hours, with their #28 Audi R8 LMS Ultra, shared by the driving team of Christopher Mies, Edward Sandstrom, Laurens Vanthoor, and Nico Mueller. 

This marks the first win in the race for the newly redesigned Audi R8 LMS Ultra.  Here is the full story on how the race went, via two different sources.  GT Spirit, and The Checkered Flag
