Peugeot Sport’s technical director Olivier Jasonnie reflected on a ‘disappointing’ 6 Hours of Imola result after securing ninth at best.

“The #94 unfortunately had a problem after the final pit stop and couldn’t get past the #5 Porsche at the end,” he said.

“After the #93’s spin caused by another car (#38 JOTA Cadillac – Earl Bamber), it was tough to get back into the race, and we weren’t lucky with the safety car.

“It’s a mixed result overall, with strong qualifying sessions, but some disappointment in the race.

“We weren’t able to slot into the right packs of cars, and on a circuit like Imola where overtaking is so difficult, that prevented us from achieving a better result today, despite improved pace on a clear track.”

Peugeot’s #93 9X8 Hypercar secured a place in Hyperpole qualifying following Antonio Fuoco’s fastest lap time deletion.

Even still, the #94 Peugeot started in 11th and joined its #93 sibling in fighting within the points threshold – before #94’s Loic Duval incurred a penalty from making contact with JOTA at the Acque Minerali.

“I saw some drops on the windshield at the start of my stint, while I was on four medium tyres,” added #93 co-driver Mikkel Jensen.

“In the end, the rain never came, so it was the right call.

“P9 isn’t a great result, but the midfield is so close that a small strategic mistake can easily drop you from 5th to 15th.”

Peugeot opted for two different tyre strategies when the light rain arrived, four new medium slicks for the #94 and previously scrubbed mediums (from qualifying) for the #93.

They finished ninth and 12th amidst the ultra-competitive mid-field of Hypercar competitors despite having showcased promising pace after struggling in Qatar.
