Has anyone been recently, is there much there on the day itself?

Is scrutineering open to the public on that weekend or is it a closed affair?

Any extra info. would be good.

Cheers!
Well worth a trip. As Simon mentioned, we did it in 2014 - very much spur of the moment, but tremendous fun. On the day it's fun seeing the circuit without a lot of the furniture we're used to seeing in June, grass a lot longer, and while it's reasonably well attended, there are still far fewer people around.

Paddock's open (much in the way it is for much of the main event) but with a bit more relaxed atmosphere - which is nice. It's also very cost effective if you do a flying visit with a short trip Eurotunnel ticket and unlike June, hotels are much more available and reflect the sort of pricing you'd generally find in Le Mans for most of the year.

Giving serious consideration to doing it again this year.
