 Except in Oz, where they are still legal till next year.  Brad Jones
Racing/ Audi Australia is running  2 ex Italian series works cars +
occaisional appearances with a updated 96 BTCC car. They should dominate
the series, if they can get the cars to outbrake the new Volvo s40.

In the f1 support races, the Audis finished 1,2 & 1,3. Another lap & the
results would probably have been 2,3 behind the s40
