Five months after its one-two in the world's most famous endurance race, Peugeot Sport returns to Le Mans, this time with a packed programme featuring all its one-make championships for the season's final Rencontres Peugeot Sport meeting. Spectators can look forward to an exciting weekend of action-packed racing.
The meeting's menu stars the THP Spider Cup, the 207 and 206 Relay Races, the Coupe 207 THP and the Trophée GT (206RCC and Hommell). The packed grids will feature more than 500 drivers and 250 cars, while access to the paddock area is free of charge.
The programme continues with a parade of the Le Mans-winning 908 HDi FAP, entertainment in the 'village' and the presence of factory Peugeot drivers Stéphane Sarrazin, Nicolas Minassian and Franck Montagny. The all-French trio will form a formidable crew in the 207 relay race that will see them drive a production 207 built at Peugeot's Poissy factory. The car will be tended by three of the mechanics who ran the N°9 908 at Le Mans in June. Staff from Poissy will look after the entry's race strategy.
The entertainment package includes an XBOX 360 simulator challenge (with a benchmark time posted by Stéphane Sarrazin), as well as wheel-change contests on a 207 RC Rallye and the possibility throughout the day for visitors to try their hand at slot car racing.
Last but not least, a number of Peugeot models will be on display, including the
Peugeot 908 HDi FAP, of course, but also an RCZ, a 5008, a 3008 and many
others.
