"I thoroughly enjoyed the race. We had a good fight and the three of us did a good job together. The weekend was excellent preparation for the Le Mans 24 Hours and it was also very nice to win a race again. My last victory dated back to the 1997 Luxemburg Grand Prix!"
Nicolas Minassian (Peugeot 908 HDi FAP #7):
"I suffered quite badly with oversteer during my first stint but everything returned to normal once new tyres were fitted and I had a great scrap with McNish. I left my braking as late as possible, and he braked even later, and we both end up crossing the grass. It was close, but perfectly fair and square! I spent the rest of the race enjoying the afternoon with my two team-mates."

Marc Gené (Peugeot 908 HDi FAP #7):
"’Nico’ did most of the work. It’s a good result in championship terms and I’m delighted that the team brought in Jacques for this race to help us prepare for Le Mans."
Michel Barge (Peugeot Sport Director):
"Peugeot has kept up its unbeaten run in the Le Mans Series and we were also pleased that we chose to use Spa to prepare for Le Mans by entering three-drivers for both cars. That doesn’t necessarily mean we are perfectly ready for Le Mans; we still have a great deal of work to do, especially following the accident of the N°8 car. Unfortunately, that’s racing. Mixing cars of differing performance levels is one of the draws of this discipline, but it’s also its biggest difficulty."

Bruno Famin (Peugeot Technical Director):
"We didn’t have any technical problems whatsoever. The engine cut on the N°8 car following an erroneous manoeuvre during the driver change. The N°8 car’s crash has obviously made life more complicated for us, but it isn’t the first challenge we have had to rise to!"
