Just arrived home to a parcel from UPS containing my tickets for the 2017 Le Mans 24 Hours. Must be some kind of a record!

Where are you staying for Spa? Fair few 2017 plans up in the air here but one way or another figure a Spa trip will likely to take place in some shape or form.

we have booked the same place as we did for the classic, domaine long pre
it is a sort of country park near stavalot (kind of centre parks) chalets were basic, but not in them apart from sleeping really and the reception area has a basic restaurant and reasonable bar. The park is very rural and some facilities like swimming pool. main advantage is it is cheap got a 4/6 person chalet for 4 nights for 200 euro,s we will go thursday but might go back sunday or monday 4th night was basically free. http://www.domainelongpre.be/en |

Looks like flying Lufthansa via Munich and arriving at CDG at a decent time of day with the TGV station a 10 min walk away is about 20 Euros cheaper than flying low-cost to Beauvais and arriving god-knows-when.

i know but in my defence camping at le mans is in cleanish well run sites with hundreds of friends and overlooking the great race, and it is warm, camping at silverstone/spa is not as appealling (but have done it).

If the weather in the Ardennes in May wouldn't be the weather in the Ardennes in May, I'd camp as well. But it being like it is, I'm happy being a namby pamby in my Gîte!

I remember, not so long ago, it was very stressful waiting for our tickets to arrive only few weeks before start of LM 24. Haha ha those were the days

yes it seems very strange having the tickets in hand with 7 months to go until the race, but what the heck saves all that "have i got what i asked for" worries

Got confirmation from my agent (1st Tickets) that Tertre Rouge and Dunlop are allocated to me - so it's not quite at Simon's stage of having them in hands but pretty confident I know where I'm likely to be in mid-June.

you will be warmly welcomed, on wednesday/thursday you will usually see someone watching qually outside the main entry gate to the campsite you will know, but we will almost certainly be camped against the wall directly opposite the entrance. will let you know cars so that you can spot us when i know what we are taking. security is usually tight but most people manage to convince them they are only visiting and get let in.
