The papers think that next week France will start allowing Brits in, subject to both jabs and a test.  I suspect we are moved up their traffic light.

Looking at the way the number of positive tests is increasing over here, this is a brave move

Help, get me out of here.  Its Lorry

Hi Guys, (and Gals)
I have spoken with ACO first thing today.

They are saying that any tickets we have in hand (i.e. on credit note) will automatically renew - so these customers get 1st dibs on allocation before the remaining tickets (up to 50,000) go on general sale.
They are trying to offer the SAME G/S and camping allocation as booked where possible.

Only problem is, you have to accept the replacements or advise which ones we want to keep according to their next deadline (still TBC) and once decided, you will no longer be able to apply for credit or refund UNLESS the event happens to be held behind closed doors again (so even, for example, if the event does go ahead but we are unable to travel for say quarantine rules or geographical limitations, then the tickets are held at YOUR RISK).

I am happy for now, because I have MORE THAN ENOUGH tickets on credit with ACO (10 x GE, 10 x GS and 3 x Camping BSJ), for our group.
I will accept the replacement offering and I suspect any spares will be offered for sale ON HERE in due course.  

Watch this space.....

And broke completely, they will have another go tomorrow!

Thankfully we have credit notes from last year so our tickets are already sorted  ;D

I did manage to get on breifly.......................shockingly p*** poor as usual!

Looks like only Camping Bleu and Verte are available to book - All GS are available - Also seems like you have to book a GE ticket AND a GS ticket together.

Tribune 05 is funny - listed on the Map as Dunlop (Correct!) - But on the ticket list it is Goodyear!  ;D ;D ;D

Now completely crashed..............................

*UPDATE*
Seems to be working better for now - AND you CAN now book GE tickets without GS..........

I was recently surprised to find that Dunlop, that wonderful British company, is no longer owned entirely by the Japanese, but also by Goodyear and the tyres are now made in the midlands of Slovenia.  Their tyre doctor, a Brummie of course, is a class act.

Answer: Goodyear are paying the bill
