Fom personal experience - see my video - the cobbles are still there, under the tarmac!
Yes, it is sad that Les Essarts has lost all its superstructure, and indeed a quarter of the circuit. But as they say about radio - the pictures in your head are better! Thanks for those pics of the demolition. Clearly the pits were the same 'opera boxes' as Gueux.
And thanks to Tim the Grey for some most atmospheric night shots of Gueux. He showed the "Respect des pilotes. Respect du site." signs. I fear that in the UK such a place would be a sea of crisp packets and pop bottles, if not more unpleasant rubbish. In France its clean and neat, even though, AFAIK, there is no warden there all the time. Les Amis are a mighty group!
