Great livery


Did Peugeot give the specs of the car?


EDIT: I see at Racecar Engineering website it's the 908HY instead of 909H.
@ Mods: Can you change topic title to Peugeot 908 Hybrid

That's a beautiful color for the car, but the "electricity" graphics could really use the big elbow.

Does this give credence to the Pugeot hybrid at Petit rumor?

I have some detailed info on the car but not enough to make a meaningful piece from yet. Its KERS in the F1 sense - which give a 60kw boost for 20 seconds at Le Mans. It uses 2 Li-Ion battery packs and a single motor generator in placed of the starter motor. They system wieght is around 65kg, but with various weight savings elsewhere only adds 45kg.

It will not do the full LMS just selected races including Le Mans. I would expect (and hope) to see it at Sebring also.

What happens if they win Le Mans overall with a non-compliant LMP1 car? Other manufacturers (say Audi) might not like that

Since we know Corsa's car actually doesn't have the hybrid yet, was the car at Silverstone actually running the hybrid system?

Diesels are quiet, but this was SILENT in the pit lane, purely electric.

I'm just editing today, but have a shot somewhere of Audi mechanics diving out to watch it on the first roll out.

Can it have a speaker on it with some loud engine noises, so that team members of other teams etc. realise the car is coming down the pitlane
