Audi did a lot of work on the R15 TDI to create a more aerodynamic car over its life. The 2009 R15 TDI version and the 2010 R15 TDI Plus while the same basic car looked vastly different. A lot of the aero work was done in places the naked eye cannot see nor perceive. A good Le Mans car will be a lot different from a good Spa or Silverstone car just because Le Mans is that different Aero wise. So I agree that the car we see now will not be the same car at Le Mans (although it may look the same.)
