Delayed. Official reason is that it will be too hard to fill the grids due to HC restrictions. Another date TBC in March but I have the feeling that it could be a cancellation.
Will, what's your opinion? |

They have added another event at Nogaro in July...let’s hope we can get to that one! They could always add on a rearranged Le Castellet event at the end of the year....

been added to the calendar. I dont know about your needs in terms of accommodation, but there are few acceptable hotels within 15 miles around the track.
But if you're ready to drive further, some spa towns offer good hotels and restaurants. May be you know curists, they swim, walk, run and are on diet all day long then rush to the next table and over feed themselves! |

Les Dix Mille Tours du Castellet, announced from 30 April to 2 May.
Year 2021 I mean… Lack of motivation, sorry, I didn't even check about a possible clash. |

TBC
From PA, dated 2 April:
Dear Competitors, Following the new French government announcements last Wednesday, many of you are wondering whether or not the Dix Mille Tours event, scheduled for April 30, May 1 and 2 will be maintained. As it stands, it is impossible for us to give you a clear and definitive answer. We are trying to obtain more information from national and local authorities, as well as from country embassies concerning our foreign competitors, and the terms of their arrival on French territory. What is certain is that we will not maintain the event if it created too many logistical or administrative constraints for the competitors. In any case, we will get back to you no later than Wednesday with a definitive answer. In the meantime, we wish you all an excellent weekend and Happy Easter. I think the definitive answer TBA no later than 7 April. |

Will, you now are first in rope here for the PA events. Your opinion? If it happens on schedule, will you go to Le Castellet?

...I don’t think we will be allowed out of the UK, so looking unlikely....very sad.

Last news from PA make it clear, no Brits or too much hassle on Brits, no meeting. My opinion is: nothing to regret! Stay safe at home. You like to go racing? Stay alive first, discuss later!

Overseas travel remain illegal for Brits until at least May 17 and even after that people returning from countries with high Covid levels will have to do some combination of tests, isolation and even hotel quarantine. If Brits are a requirement for this meeting, there is zero chance of it being able to happen before July at the earliest, more likely the Autumn or even later.
