Gené heads Peugeot 1-2 as Aston Martin takes third

ELMS - 16/08/2008

Magnifique! What other word to describe the performance of the Peugeot Total team in qualifying at the Nürburgring, as Marc Gené snatched pole position from his team-mate Pedro Lamy to put the 908 HDi-FAP diesel prototypes on the front row of the grid. And in third place was the Aston Martin Lola of the Charouz Racing System team after a fantastic performance from Berliner Stefan Mücke, who out paced Alexandre Premat and Rinaldo ‘Dindo' Capello in their Audi R10 TDI diesel prototypes.

Warm sunshine is always a treat in the Eifel region, and the Nürburgring is at its best this weekend as 46 car teams prepare for Sunday's 1,000 kilometre race, which is likely to be run at record   speeds as Peugeot, Audi and Lola fight for victory. Nor are the LMP2 category Porsche RS Spyders to be discounted, for Dutchman Jos Verstappen set the seventh fastest time overall in the Van Merksteijn Motorsport team Porsche, closely chased by Casper Elgaard in the Team Essex Porsche and Andrea Belicchi in the Speedy Racing Team Sebah Lola-Judd coupe.
