Perhaps some could see something deeper into that sponsorship. Maybe, maybe not.

Just to Clarify they are only supporting The Village on the Curves run by Lycian Events, which is situated on the inside of Porsche Curves.

Maybe this is one for the next "so what do we talk about" thread, presumably opening in late June, but my resolution for 2013 must must must be to get hotels for the drive down and back sorted earlier.

Was all enthused in December, tried to book, booking wasn't open, and now I've procrastinated into March, and desired place is booked solid. Probably my mistake for letting on about it, but frustrating as in years gone by they've had availability until quite late on - always a little sad when a secret gets out.

Decent places sorted on both legs, slightly longer drive than hoped for on Sunday evening, but not unfeasible, and no, I'm not letting on where they are!

Something new I suppose - I've never heard of this before..... Or Lycian Events for that matter.....

The works in the center of Le Mans that make sure the scrutineering will not take place at "Les Jacobins". But actually nobody knows exactly where it will be.

Important stuff Eric - James and I are planning to be there this year!

[batmobile]

Sure, I'll folllow the works and try to get the information about the place for the scrutineering. For sure with these works for the new tram 's line, the center is evry disturbed. They were thinkig at "place de la république" for the scrutineering but it seems to get big difficulties for the trucks' access. To be continued.....
No new about the Arnage curve, went some times to ride there but no visible works. ????

[Aysedasi]

I can't seem to access your links above, Eric?

[batmobile]

Well, I think it will be better like this:

[Aysedasi]

That's better!


What's the chances of a break with tradition and scrutineering at the circuit? Or is that heresy?



On the football pitch????

[batmobile]

On the football pitch? Good idea to have at last a good spectacle in the arena....
Seriously, absolutely no site is mentionned anywhere for this. It is a big mistery. But what is sure, is that in the teams it works a lot. This afternoon, I had a ride with my motorbike around the circuit and I went to the Technoparc where oak racing and Pescarolo have their workshops and then
I could visit and see the DOME .


Huuummmmm, I feel good

[Aysedasi]

You lucky wotsit!

Eric , thanks for posting .

[Aysedasi]

Now your extracting the Michael, Eric!

[Simmi]

Nice behind-the-scenes access Eric!

[vincegail]

I think I'll follow Andy Wallace's example and move to Le Mans....

[Aysedasi]

I thought he'd left Le Mans quite a few years ago?

[vincegail]

That info passed me by. I remember from an Autosport Le Mans Guide (when they were still 'doable') that he lived in Le Mans. Never got the message that he moved out to another town. In that case, I'll just follow his first example, and forget about moving out again

Loving this. The new poster for LM, taken from the E-I facebook page.



Will be interesting to see if this is actually the order in the race!
