Sounds as though it might be worth buying tickets for.

Is there any sort of covered area and decent toilets?

Sorry - very mundane questions!

Managed to persuade my wife that we should book our main hol this year so that Le Mans is on the middle weekend - and that we should book a cottage not far away!

Anyway, shall only be going to the actual race, not qualifying, so have decided to buy our general admission tickets on race day from the circuit. Will book numbered parking expo in advance.

My question - is the 'Welcome' area worth buying a 19 euro ticket for? We've been to Le Mans several times previously. This year we'll probably kip in the car, so I'm quite interested in arranging some sort of refuge as a hedge against bad weather.

Can anyone tell me whether the 'Welcome' area is worth it - and any alternatives?

By the way, have been a member of the ACO in the past and used their area, but not intending to join this year.

thanks
