Team Pretzel (me and the missus) in the Cayman

Out: Dover - Calais on Wednesday 7th
Back: Calais - Dover Monday 12th

Staying @ Hotel de France in La Chartre sur Le Loir for the duration as usual and commuting from there daily.

Looking forward to whatever has been organised for the 100th celebrations in the square outside our hotel and elsewhere. Expecting it to be heaving!

Same here..... Members area for ticketing shows 'To be informed' and when trying to click on to order tickets shows 'Erreur'

Anyone else having fun with this, or any success?

Nice to be able to confirm a return to La Sarthe for Team Pretzel (me and the OH) after the last couple of years enforced hiatus.....

Out 7th via Chunnel for a change (first time this route over for us after more than a quarter of a century using ferries from Pompey both ways!)
Back 13th Calais - Dover

Staying @ Hotel de France in La Chartre sur Le Loir and commuting from there daily in the Cayman.

Remaining at home again this year despite the ACO making it relatively easy to transfer tickets deferred from last year. Decided to get a refund.

Just too unpredictable, and had to make the decision a few weeks back whilst there was still quarantine and more onerous testing returning from France.

Will be interesting to see how it pans out for those that DO go!

Will set up the armchair, buy some appropriate food and drinks and watch the live stream whilst listening to RLM.

Roll on 2022 (fingers crossed)!!

Couple of hours drive out of Sydney

Well, like a number of others on this thread we have decided that the published restrictions on 'villages', movement around the circuit etc., and all that that entails mean that we are pulling the plug on attending this year. First no show for us for the best part of 25 years. A real shame too as this was going to by my son's first ever trip over with us, but we want him to have the full experience.

I understand the ACO's approach and I sincerely hope that they can pull it off as it will help mitigate the inevitable losses that will be incurred. Things not looking too promising at the time of writing this as the UK govt. considering quarantine restrictions for people travelling back from France in the not too distant future...

We have, like others, managed to defer both our tickets (by means of credit note) and our ferry crossing has been rescheduled (yet again) to June of next year.

Here's hoping that things subside in time for a proper shindig in June 2021.

Agreed, superb stuff! Excellent production values and really brought back memories of last years 24LM in particular.

Good grief, has it really been 25 years!

A tasteful polo shirt would go down well here too.

Very sorry to hear Neil Nopanic is not going to make it over this year, we were REALLY going to make an effort to meet up for a catch up. Enjoy the proceedings in Scotland Neil !!

Soon(ish). Last year was the middle of October, but no formal notification from the ACO just yet.

A quick Google found this:  https://www.bookmoto.com/mt-italy/travel-parking.htm, not very detailed but maybe more out there.

Best rgds,

Peter B.

Well, we more than qualify for eligibilty status (23 years) but have never heard anything about it from our friends at the ACO. As per Landy_Jon's comment I'll give them a call and report back here...

Hoping to bump into Neil (Nopanic) this time around, we haven't seen you for a while sir!! Might also take a trip out to Mulsanne camping to introduce ourselves to Slash 

The Chinetti lounge is a new one on me too. As a 'long standing member' I've never been advised by the ACO of it's existence. A quick Google does not reveal much except an old reference to it on the Club website back in 2016 see here - https://www.lemans.org/en/news/24-hours-of-le-mans-vip-treatment-for-club-members/41185.

Perhaps it's existence was so poorly publicised that it wasn't used and now it is no more? More info please Rick101?

Just goes to show that F1 really IS the feeder series for the WEC :-)
