"The N°7 908 had a double transmission problem. Both parts had covered a large number of kilometres but we had purposely left them on the car with a view to validating them prior to the Le Mans 24 Hours. Apart from that, we didn’t have a single problem. It was a very satisfactory race from the technical point of view even though time is extremely tight because of the calendar."
Michel Barge (Peugeot Sport Director):
"It was a superb race which ended in an extraordinary finale. It was a very close-run thing not only between Peugeot and Audi, but also in the different categories, and that can only be good for the Le Mans Series. This race marked the anniversary of our first win and we celebrated that with an all-Peugeot front row and the fastest race lap. It’s a great result for Peugeot Sport and an excellent way to prepare for the Le Mans 24 Hours."
Pedro Lamy (Peugeot 908 HDi FAP #8) :
"It was a very difficult race because our car suffered from oversteer, unlike the N°7 908 which had a better set-up. The last 20 laps or so of the race itself were very virile, but our tangle was nothing more than a race incident."
Stéphane Sarrazin (Peugeot 908 HDi FAP #8):
"It was important to win here to stay in the chase for the title. It seems strange to be thinking in championship terms so soon into the year. But by the end of the next race we will have already passed the season’s halfway point!"
Marc Gené (Peugeot 908 HDi FAP #7):
"Our car was excellent but it wasn’t easy to catch Capello. Despite their spectacular off, Capello and McNish were quick all the way to the flag. Nicolas and I really had to push hard to finish in fifth place."
