, believes that Peugeot will be closer to the pace in the race than its qualifying performance suggests. “The car feels good on a long run: against the other cars we are not as far off as it looks.”Vergne expressed surprise that Peugeot’s rivals were able to make much bigger gains between free practice and qualifying than the French manufacturer.
Peugeot was more than two seconds from the pace in 10th and 11th positions after Wednesday evening's first qualifying session. Real progress has been made with the 9X8 since its last WEC appearance at Spa at the end of April, according to the Frenchman.
