1993: one race, a triple win !
For the third consecutive year, Philippe Alliot put a Peugeot at the front of the grid, recording an exceptional time of 3'24''94. In trying to do even better, he went off on the new section. The impact was hard and caused serious damage.
The only one authorised by the ACO to drive the reserve car was the person designated in advance, Jean-Pierre Jabouille, who promptly finished the session in a 905 bearing the number 2R. This was chassis EV13. The spotlight was then on the mechanics who had a long day ahead of them repairing the damage to no. 2. There is some evidence to suggest that the size of the task was too great for the time left, and that it was chassis EV 13 which took its place, as no. 2, for the start of the race. Lined up on the grid, no-one bothered to check the identity of the car on pole position. The rules stated that if it was the car seen out in practice carrying no.2R, it should have started from the back...Ideally placed, no.2 took up the lead immediately, and kept it until 19.05 when an oil leak slowed its progress. When it took to the track again, it was sixteenth after 9 laps. This was good news for the Toyotas who temporarily took the lead. However, the 905s, no.1 and no.3, gained the upper hand once more from 23.00. A loose exhaust, a light and a driveshaft joint to change, put Brabham-Bouchut-Helary a lap ahead of Dalmas-Boutsen-Fabi. For its part, the third 905, no.2, which had no further dramas, took third position at the end of the 21st hour. With no-one left to threaten this, Jean Todt fixed these positions. It didn't matter which order the three were in. At the finish, one lap separated the first two cars and the 5,100 km covered at 213.358 km/h by Brabham-Bouchut-Helary constituted a new record for the 13.6 km course.
