GT5 Transcripts/Peugeot 908 HDi FAP - Team Peugeot Total '10

The diesel-powered 908 HDi FAP is a car that Peugeot developed for many years, aimed to dominate the world of prototype racing. In 2007 and 2008, the company continued to perfect the machine using LMS races as a test bed, and finally in 2009, the car attained supremacy when it defeated its main rival, the Audi R10, also diesel-powered, at the 24 Hours of Le Mans with a 1-2 finish.
Peugeot went for two in a row at Le Mans the following year, with a new version of the car with reduced weight, revised aerodynamics, and a completely reinforced drive system. Four cars were entered, three from Peugeot Sport and one from Team Oreca.
The driving teams assigned to these cars were first rate, with Anthony Davison, Mark Gene, and Alexander Wurz piloting the No. 1 car; Nicolas Minassian, Frank Montagny, and Stephane Sarrazin in the No. 2 car; and Pedro Lamy, Sebastian Bourdais, and Simon Pegenaud driving the No. 3 car.
The drivers were set on making their mark in qualifying as all three cars raced to the front of the grid, led by the amazing lap time set by Bourdais in the No. 3 car of 3 minutes 19.711 seconds.
But the fruits of victory don't always go to the quickest in racing, especially inMisspelt as "if" in the game. a race that lasts 24 hours. All four Peugeot cars experienced mechanical trouble, and all four retired from the race. There was no doubt in anyone's mind that the Peugeots were the fastest cars on the track, so not finishing one car was especially disappointing for the company. You could hear the resolve of the team in a company spokesperson's statement after the race: "We'll learn from our defeat today to return stronger."
