I am gutted for not going ..........

just returned from a cracking race at Spa , I am  :'( so envious of those who are going this year

Having just waved my work colleague off to France  :'( :'( finances & new home mean 'not this year'

would love to piggyback on stepdaughter cable / sky thingy, but alas I may have to rely on YOUTUBE updates ...... :(

seasonal greeting to all , have a good one  :)

I do still visit most days, i like to feel involved with a group of like minded 'enthusiasts', sometimes lively debate ,you don't have to join in ,

don't have a smart fone, feel like a leaper because I dont do Apps , but do you know i still enjoy the sport ,

can bore & be bored over a few jars in a clubhouse / foreign hotel but love engaging in racing stuff chat, this forum helps until I get my hotel bar tokens out

PS. Do still love a good programme (WEC take notice)

Alas I saw the writing on the wall the tail end of last year

I sensed the 'fan' was going to be cast aside for the event we all would love to be part of but ,'that's business ' I guess

Hi Bob

I am planning to go with the guys of Select Motor racing again.
Went with them in 2019 , brilliant trip including the snow!!
Been trying to go back since. Hopefully 4th time lucky they will let us the great unwashed in, shame the pugs aren't running
Will look out for 'the' flag

The alarm bells with bykolles have been ringing for years, a pair of Audi R10 prototypes with no visible sponsorship ..........

The ACO/WEC are desperate for Hyercar to succeed with professional outfits entering,

At least firing across the bows of Peugeot regards showing up before Le Mans 22 is good to hear, whether Glickenhaus do a full season & not take the piss is another.

You got to give it to Toyota ,they deserve all their recent success, ACO WEC owe them big time

& then someones enters under the Vanwall name

Having seen the photo's & intending to attend the WEC round in may (....) I would be interested in knowing peoples thoughts

Will I now be needing my Silverstone binoculars ??

WEC NEWS
Glickenhaus can return to WEC only if it enters every race
Glickenhaus will only be permitted to return to the World Endurance Championship next year if it commits to entering and racing one of its Le Mans Hypercars in every race.
WEC CEO Frederic Lequien made the vow in the wake of multiple public comments from marque boss Jim Glickenhaus that he only wants to contest a limited programme with his Pipo-engined 007 LMH design in 2022 after opting out of the series following the Le Mans 24 Hours this year.

Lequien told Autosport that the American entrant will be required to race at least one 007 "for all the season, that is very clear".

"We don't want to sound pretentious, but we are an FIA world championship, which means we have to follow rules," he said.

"Also for the other competitors it is fair that he competes in all the rounds."

Lequien explained that any second entry from Glickenhaus for regular WEC rounds or Le Mans in June would be assessed by the relevant selection committees.

"It is clear that this could be possible, but [the team must enter] one car for all the races," he said.

In the wake of Lequien's comments, former movie director Jim Glickenhaus reiterated that he is not committed to all six races in 2022.

"It is our aim to be at Sebring and Spa before Le Mans and definitely have two cars at the 24 Hours," he told Autosport.

"We would like to go to Monza after Le Mans and to keep racing in the WEC, but what happens will depend on the Balance of Performance.

Beer & the Misses Lemon drizzle for me this year,
