This looks like a great day / evening for those who aren't bothered about watching the drivers parade in town: http://www.viragedemulsanne.org/viragedemulsanne/images/Logos/2016_Flyer_EN.pdf
Anyone else planning to go?

Good fella Kristoff.
Think we might have to jump on a Navette as I suspect that parking will be at a premium and that beer will be consumed!

Speaking of Ford.... There's gonna be a bunch of GT owners coming over with their cars (some on the way already)
Not sure how many actually know racing that well, just that they are GT owners and that Ford is back to LM.

I'll be there during the day probably, will have to go to the parade to get some pictures.
Might pop in after the parade again, before heading to the Brethren party on BN.

We'll be there in the morning, early, as parking seems to be available early on. It's a pretty low key event, at least compared to the sprawl of St Saturnin, and all the better for that!
Into town for the parade and a few refreshments in the pm, the tram taking the strain.

May try this early on. There is a nice patisserie by the supermarket nearby so a nice bit of breakfast an a look at the cars after, then back to camp for refuelling.

We wobbled down last year for breakfast. Was canny.
