A great start to the 2008 24 Hours of Le Mans, although a tad uneventful. As expected the Peugeots took off but Allan McNish did split them in the beginning only to get passed back on the straight.
Audi will need some help! Granted only an hour has passed but the first Audi #2 is 45sec down. So if both cars ran flawless, Peugeot would win by 18min.
