I can't believe it. Audi is goin' lose this one because the new diesel R15 racer proved to far less durable than the old diesel R10 or the unbeatable R8. Kudos to Peugeot for dialing in the 908 racer and likely winning in about 8 and a half hours.
On the plus side, Corvette is going to send the C6R off with a win in its final LeMans run. And I dig the new Gulf racing Aston-Martin prototypes.
Anyone else catch any of it. SPEED Channel is airing it in the US

I don't think Chrysler entered this year. I know Ford didn't (They haven't since the 60s).
The GT class where the Vipers ran is all Porsches and Ferraris from the look of it, I don't even think the colorful little Euro brands like Morgan or Spyker showed up. There was a Lambo but it only lasted like 10 minutes (it seems there's always just one Lambo and it's out within 2 hours and nobody notices it. I wonder if that's the same team starting and parking every year)
