As reported earlier in the media, 29-year-old Sebastien Bourdais would race at Le Mans this year for the seventh time in his career. Peugeot has confirmed that the Frenchman will contest the famous Le Mans 24 hour race in June. Bourdais finished second at Le Mans with Peugeot in 2007.

Sebastien Bourdais is also set to race full-time in F1 with Toro Rosso this season. Peugeot also announced that Bourdais will contest the forthcoming Sebring 12 hour race with the diesel-powered 908 HDi prototype in late March alongside Stephane Sarrazin and Franck Montagny.

BMW Sauber test driver Christian Klien will team up with Pedro Lamy and Nicolas Minassian in the sister entry at Sebring.
