Once again Carrera was represented at the 2009 Endurance Race. The hypnotic power of the sound of the racing engines speeding right past the Carrera circuit contributed tangibly to the excitement of participants on the Carrera tracks.

Every two hours the latest lap and section records were transmitted via TV to the Carrera circuit; which repeatedly boosted the competitive edge as well as the sense of ambition and challenge for the spectators. Even after the racing there was no loss of enthusiasm for the Carrera competition, thus the events staged on the Carrera circuit outlasted the real-life racing action by far.

As in previous years, over 500 invited AUDI guests enjoyed a pleasant opportunity to be sidetracked by the Carrera circuit; regardless of whether it was drivers on a break from the race, members of the board engaged in mutual tests of skill, works engineers testing out the true qualities of the perfect scale models of the Carrera racing cars, or simply guests looking to imitate the full size excitement on the Carrera racetrack.
 
Finally, although Peugeot, the French hosts, came first and second in the actual race; Audi took third place and, thanks to the active involvement of Carrera, they also won over a great many hearts and minds.
