[Aysedasi]

Yeah, I saw that. You can pretty much guarantee there'll be twenty+ people trying to use that one at the circuit.....

You may be correct Andrew

[Aysedasi]

A quote I found elsewhere. Might be worth a check....

If you, like I did, printed off your GA tickets as soon as you bought them on members release, you may not have noticed that they have no barcode or QR code on them.
I've just gone into my account and reprinted the tickets in my basket which now have both codes on them.
I think this happened last year as well.

[GT6]

Oh i remEmbEr that will check mine

probably worth checking the week before the race too that they haven't changed, which happened this year.

Just had an email from ACO telling me to download the new tickets

[RL17]

Will be tempted as I always have fun logging onto various bits of the ACO/LM 24 sites as can have random changes quite often

[Gerard C]

Yes this might be correct. What can be expected when the first ticket is used? Will it cancel all the others having the same serial number?

[Aysedasi]

Presumably when the second (and subsequent) person turns up, it will register as already having been used.... I actually messaged the seller. He thought he had been clever by removing the QR codes but as far as I'm aware, the bar codes work just as well. It would appear that the listing has been removed now.

[Aysedasi]

€89 camping ticket (Hippo 30) - bids starting at £150..... Close to 100% mark-up.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/186167575...Bk9SR-auq8v7Yg

A Mulsanne camping ticket (again €89 face value, I believe) has already sold for £150.

[Gerard C]

You did right to message the seller, Andrew. Prepare yourself to send others Assuming the ACO is aware, lets see what they'll do to avoid a big mess at the entries.

[GT6]

Well just downloaded the tickets again as instructed by the ACO and on comparing them to the ones i printed off last week i can see absolutely no difference.

[Aysedasi]

Better safe than sorry......

I think someone on Pistonheads sent a copy to the ACO hoping they might the seller out!

As PZ54 has gone and has been replaced with Rotunde parking, I would have expected that to be exactly the same. Neither were ever sold (to my admittedly limited knowledge) as 'camping' spots, although it would be reasonable to assume that anyone wanting to park their motorhome would be likely to be sleeping in it.

I noticed PZ54 when I was camping at BSJ this year. They seemed to have toilets (a line of porto loo style ones). Lots of motorhomes seemed to be openly 'camping' - chairs and awnings out. If they were staying I would have thought they had access to water too.

[Aysedasi]

For those waiting on hard copy tickets, the ACO have told me today they will be sent out in a month.

[RL17]

Did they say which month

[Aysedasi]

Yes, October.....

[Gerard C]

Wait for a hard copy and have a good printer at home could help.

[RL17]

Membership card renewed October was post marked 3 Nov and just arrived today 18 Nov.

Ticket office staff should have some spare time though now

Just had email notification to say that mine are on the way and will be delivered tomorrow.

[Aysedasi]

Yes, same here.

Also had confirmation today that 1st Tickets have my pals' tickets sorted too.

[GT6]

Appears the agents are all advising the who got what

[Aysedasi]

Full week general admission now available on the resale site - but be quick!

[isynge]

Happy to confirm that 1st Tickets have sorted out my allocation of 1 x Tertre Rouge, 2 x what I still refer to as Dunlop Grandstands, and 2 x GE.
Conscious the email from 1st Tickets did indicate that they'd had a reduced allocation this year, and not everyone got what the wanted, which presumably means there'll be a trickle of disappointed postings to come.
