Last Thursday, the Automobile Club de l?Ouest revealed the list of 55 cars invited to participate in the next 24 Hours of Le Mans. Unsurprisingly, we find in this list three 908 HDI FAPs from Peugeot Sport and the one that will equip the Oreca team. For Olivier Quesnel, director of Peugeot Sport, this private ??908?? comes to strengthen the ranks of the manufacturer to win the Le Mans race, especially since it will be of the latest specification.

« This Peugeot will be a 908 version 2010, explains Olivier Quesnel on RMC. Oreca will have the same as the three factory cars. For me, it's a fourth chance. I will have to agree with Hugues (de Chaunac, president of Oreca) on the strategy, if he wants to play the hare at the start or do a waiting race? But this car will be completely integrated into the racing strategy that the Peugeots will adopt during the 24 Hours of Le Mans. »
