LE MANS, France — Peugeot held the top two spots after 16 hours in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, putting the French manufacturer in position to end Audi’s five-year domination in the world’s most famous endurance race.
David Brabham’s Peugeot No. 9, one of the few cars to have a trouble-free run through 256 laps, led Franck Montagny’s Peugeot No. 8 by a lap. Defending champion Tom Kristensen’s Audi No. 1 was third, two laps behind Brabham on the 8.45-mile circuit.
