Winning Peugeot early in the race when it was running second.
SEBRING, FL — Fast. Efficient. Consistent. That was the French Peugeot team during the week leading up to the 58th running of the Mobil 1 Twelve Hours of Sebring presented by Fresh From Florida. And that performance culminated in the No. 07 Peugeot (Gene/ Wurz/ Davidson) winning the race. Second place went to its sister car, the No. 07 Peugeot (Lamy/ Bourdais/ Minassian) that finished 7.495 seconds behind the winner. In third place was the Aston Martin (Primat/ Mucke/ Fernandez) that was two laps down to the winners at the end of the race.
The LMP2 class was won by the Muscle Milk team in the Porsche RS Spyder (Pickett/ Maassen/ Graf) while GT2 was won by the Ferarri 430 GT (Melo/ Kaffer/ Bruni).
