The French Connection



Peugeot has just unveiled its 2007 24 Heurs du Mans challenger; the LMP1 908

Along with the new cars launch comes the rebirth of Peugeot Sport which has been out of racing since withdrawing from the World Rally Championship at the end of 2005…

And the 908’s debut showcases Peugeot’s all new turbo diesel racer along with the announcement of the team’s six driver line-up for the upcoming 24 Heurs du Mans…

Peugeot has committed two cars to the full six race LMS schedule and will feature an all-star cast including such luminaries as “JV” and “Sea Bass…”

Yes that’s right… Now that Jacques Villeneuve’s 2007 “RASSCAR” plans seem to have fizzled, the “Kanuck” will attack the Circuit de la Sarthe in 2007 instead…
