Qualifying was interesting with some wet weather.

Looks like Peugeot is in a position to dethrone the almighty Audi R10 TDi.

Is the Peugeot going to be able to take down the almighty Audi in LMP1? Not a big fan of Bourdais, always root against him in the champ car races. We will see if the Peugeot is as reliable as the Audi, how much time will they spend in the pits.
