Peugeot announce line-up for Le Mans 2007
Peugeot announced their driver line-up for Le Mans 2007 this morning during a lunch just outside of Paris. The French constructor announced that it will participate with two cars and announced that Jacques Villeneuve, Sebastian Broudais, Pedro Lamy and Marc Gene will come in action for the team.
Sebastian Bourdais will complete an all-French line-up in one car with Stephane Sarrazin and Nicolas Minassian, with Jacques Villeneuve teaming up with his fellow ex-F1 drivers Pedro Lamy of Portugal and Spaniard Marc Gene in the other. Peugeot last won the Le Mans endurance classic in 1993, when Frenchmen Eric Helary and Christophe Bouchut shared the victorious car with Australian Geoff Brabham.
The 908 is the car Peugeot hope will end Audi's domination. The car was tested for three days last week at Paul Ricard and drove a few rounds on a small circuit not far from Paris.
