October 19, 2014, Shanghai (China) –After a day of tough competition yesterday at the Shanghai International Circuit, drivers at the Lamborghini Blancpain Super Trofeo Asia faced off in the afternoon sun for another day of racing.

After having to drop out early in the race yesterday, favorites Jiang Xin and Max Wiser (#9) were back in action today to snatch the lead, placing them solidly in the running for the upcoming final round of races and World Final in Sepang. Max Wiser was the first to drive for the team, building a considerable lead over steadily second placed Hironori Takeuchi (#11) before the mandatory pit stop. Jiang Xin retained this lead after taking the wheel, keeping a strong hold on the first place position through the end of the race for a solid win. Japanese solo driver Akihiro Nakaya (#1) snatched up third place, giving him a much needed boost in the lead-up to Sepang.

Peugeot RC

The RC concept was designed at the Peugeot Style Centre. Intended as a true enthusiasts car, the real innovation lay in the fact that the car was designed as an "affordable" sports car. The Peugeot RC was the concept car that paved the way for the 2008 Peugeot RC HYmotion4 concept. Peugeot used the 2002 RC concept to compare performance and economy differences between comparable petrol and diesel engines. As an affordable sports car the RC had to deliver not only in terms of price, but there was the engine, the size and running costs, as well as driver comforts to consider. A wide panoramic windscreen and the cab forward seating helps the driver see all around the car and compensates for the effect caused by the length of the car. In the Petrol vs. Diesel experiment, Peugeot aimed to prove that an HDi engine could match the performance levels achieved from a petrol engine. And to demonstrate that it was not unreasonable to put an HDi engine in a sports car. The 2 resulti...
