Bentley and Audi at Le Mans 2003
Sorry if this is old news, but have just read that Johnny Herbert has signed for Bentley and will be officialy anounced soon when his two team mates have been finalised.
Audi team Joest will not compete this year at Le Mans, Audi entries will come from Audi Sport UK, Champion Audi and Team Goh with some factory support via the respective countries importer. |

So what wil Herr Joest do, try to run a pair a of 'private' Audis, help run the Bentleys ( bad idea to many cooks would also apply to too many team bosses)or sit back and have a break for the 24hrs.
Audi Team Joest might not appear but Joest Team Audi may just roll up. |

Perhaps sit back for a while, whilst they work along side Audi to produce the new 2004 spec car.

As far as I know there will be no Joest Team this year because several members of the team have joined Bentley after they decided to dump Apex and run the cars in house.
Not sure what Reinhold will do though... |

Who could the other two drivers be to join with Johnny Herbert to team up with Bentley?
