Provisionally scheduled date for next year is 8/9 July. Too close to 24 hours to make a trip to both domestically acceptable here. Main problem with September date was objections from local traders about disruption to weekend trade caused by road closures (particularly on Mulsanne Straight), which came uncomfortably close to causing event to be cancelled. July is thought to be less disruptive because of coincidence with French holiday season.
