I see the Pug has pipped the R10 for Pole at Le Mans this Saturday. :thumbsdown: Hope things reverse the during the race.

Well, despite the power of the French media and the ACO's patriotic support, our friends from Peugeot have yet to complete a 24 hour run.

I can't see them finishing. Realistically Pole + 12-14 hours in the race is what they expect.

You never know though, rain will help with reliability :)

It was very pro-pug, they did look cool with the closed cockpits though. I still can't get over how quiet the diseasals are, it's just not right. Now you know when a Vette, a Spyker or a Panoz goes past you.

What is fun is watching an RS4 B7 safety car storm through Tetre Rouge in the wet and the pack looks like they are struggling to keep up, lol.

There's something very satisfying about holding the most important race in the world in France and all the course cars are Audi's.
