“The car felt good throughout the race, and I was pleased to be able to set some competitive lap times during the difficult night-time stint when it was very dark. I would like to thank Henri (Pescarolo), my team-mates and all the members of Pescarolo Sport for this season. I have learned a lot with them and 2007 will remain as an important step in my career.”
After seeing Boullion wind up just six points shy of the drivers' laurels and Pescarolo Sport only five adrift in the teams' title chase, team boss Henri Pescarolo acknowledged the disappointment that the chance of a top two finish had disappeared, whilst expressing his growing concerns about the incredible pace of the Peugeots.
“It's sad to lose a podium finish with a problem we've never experienced before,” the Frenchman rued. “Splitting the Peugeots would have been a great way to end this tough season. I am, however, delighted that the team finished second in the teams' championship and Jean-Christophe Boullion second in the drivers' championship. This is a major achievement for all the members of the team and our partners.
“[Harold] did a great job. He set competitive times lap-after-lap, didn't make a single error and was excellent throughout the week, working strongly with his two new team-mates.”
