That's interesting. My own perception was that the Peugeot's took Audi rather by surprise. They seemed rattled by the pace of the Pugs.
On a similar theme, I was told by several 'in the know' people* that the R18's are on a different level (pacewise) to the Pugs, that the Pugs will be 'blown away' at Le Mans. That may yet happen, but personally I've now seen enough to dismiss those suggestions.
