Things you thought you'd never hear at Le Mans...

It really made me chuckle at Tertre Rouge when my mate said 'be careful in the showers, if there's not many people in there, the water's REALLY hot'. And he wasn't wrong! Never thought I'd hear that...

Yep never had to wait for showers each morning on TR, however never alone so temp did vary when someone else either started showering or finished.

I did think it was a bit quieter at TR this year, a few pitches still available, and not much queueing for the loos and showers proofs my suspicion....

Good question, it might happen. I have the Sebring March 2020 T-Shirt, poster and program! I wonder if these will become a pair with cancelled November 2020 versions?

It would be nice if the ACO did a programme, even if it was just mailed to members.
