Interesting but the Lamy, Sarrazin, Wurz crew in the Pug ran a 3.22.222 to Audi's best of 3.26.678 at the test last week. Tho I still think Audi can win it with their experience and top notch mechanic team.

Peugeot out qualified Audi last year but couldn't keep the Audi's pace during the race......
I believe the Peugeots are faster this year, but i don't think we'll see all of their cards until sunrise

AUDI has never been very fast around Le Mans, they always win with reliability having the fewest problems and spending the least amount of time in the pits.
Their diesel R10 has been consistently the quickest car round Le Sarthe since it was introduced.
Rumour has it that this is the last year the R10 will run and that the R15 will be used in 2009.
