Last year there was a temporary grandstand up the slope through the gate (the corner is called Paul Frere I believe) but you couldn't walk any further round inside Pouhon. This year I walked under the bridge hoping to find the same but saw the gate was shut and turned back, assuming the tents and people I could see there were one of the many corporate shindigs. I then saw people who were obviously regular spectators walking round, but by then I'd gone quite a long way further round and decided not to retrace my steps. One for next year. It seems that every year where you can go or not changes - at least that means exploration can be rewarded!

Second best - Nurburgring 24 beats it :-). But I wholly endorse the suggestion that anyone who likes endurance racing should make the Spa 24 a priority.
