Marc Gené was at the wheel of the #7 Peugeot 908 Hdi FAP when, at 2:51pm the race director announced that the prototype car of the Spanish driver (and current co-leader in the Le Mans Endurance Series) had an accident.

While approaching the Porsche curves on the 24 hours race track (13,650 km length) the Catalonian driver lost control over his car which spun and crashed heavily.
The Spanish champion was very lucky; after a visit to the medical centre inside the circuit, the doctors at Le Mans Hospital confirmed the initial diagnosis that he had sustained no injuries which would impede his participation in the upcoming 24 hours race on June 14th and 15th. Peugeot have not commented on the reasons that led to the accident.
