Actually September can be really excellent weather on the continent - let's just hope it isn't too bad and that the race goes ahead then as well.

It's going to be a long summer.

Maybe we need to work out a virtual Le Mans? Actually will the e-racing stuff happen anyway?

This seems like a great year to bin off the test day.

Eric, it would be interesting to know (as soon as possible) whether the normal format for the race week will be maintained, i.e. scrutineering on the Sunday and Monday preceding. We're all rebooked for crossings at the same equivalent time, so fingers crossed!

Got an email from the ACO explaining refund procedures for race tickets but nothing about camping ones, have gone back to ask if they will be valid for new dates and will let people know when i get a reply.

I'm totally confident that all tickets, including camping tickets, will be honoured in September. The email and the notice on the ACO website refers to 'fans who have bought tickets'. It doesn't distinguish between entry tickets, grandstand tickets or camping tickets....

i think that numbers in September will be much lower and not all the campsites will be required, or open.

I assumed as much. There may well be people who see an advantage. Those who can never go in June, through work or whatever, may be able to go in September. It'll be interesting to see this year how many tickets start appearing on eBay by those whose plans have sadly been scuppered....

Yep plans are in a mess for this year for everyone but as i do not have to worry about "work" i should be able to do Silverstone, spa and le mans this year but suspect there will not be a le mans classic this year, perhaps next year.

You never know which way the numbers will go for the September 24hr, it could be that some people who don't go every year and weren't going in June might decide to go in September now, especially if other races don't occur earlier in the summer.

Lots of free practice then. 45 mins of qualifying then the utterly daft half hour of 'hyperpole'....

Yes, silly nonsense.

But I didn't realise they had moved the start to 2.30pm. That's good.
