A look back with photos at all Tom Kristensen victories with Audi. He joined the Four Rings in 2000 winning the prestigious 12 Hours of Sebring with the legendary Audi R8.
Since then the Danish ace scored no less than seven outright victories with Audi LMP cars at Le Mans 24 Hours including all the Audi R8 victories at La Sarthe between 2000 and 2005. TK won the 2002 American Le Mans Series and the 2013 FIA World Endurance Championship drivers' titles.
Victories in Touring Car racing with Audi as well. Tom Kristensen won four times in the demanding Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters with various Audi A4 DTM cars.
Tom Kristensen may have retired from professionnal racing but Audi loyal fans and the whole motorsport community won't forget his amazing career and achievements. TK is simply the one and only Mr Le Mans.
