Peugeot are proven with WRC and sportscars from the past, they're European so beating Audi would probably mean more to them than an American or Japanese manufacturer. However, would be nice to see some American or Japanese company have a go at LMP1 too...

Who would Peugeot get to drive for them? They can't exactly draft in any rally drivers, can they... It's not like they have any top drivers signed to them from their current activities who are going to be familiar with Le Mans, is it?

Guess it depends who's free to drive anywhere in '06...

hopefully Nissan and Porsche can fill that role in 2006 as well
