All the best to everyone making the trip this year. Hopefully I can be there next year.

As it stands, we are trying to move house and the current plan is for it to happen over the race weekend so I won't even be watching it live on a screen! First World problems, I guess...

Stay safe!

amazing news simon! great save

bring shorts and some shelter from the sun, it’s going to be roasting! but also bring wellies and a brolly cause we don’t want to curse it

pleased to report that there were zero issues with recognising the pass sanitaire. turn up with confidence if vaccinated. if not, cannot recommend the saliva pcr for a multitude of reasons. insist on a swab.

The prediction of 'non sun' looks absolutly fabouless.
Good to read the TAC app works.
For those arriving early, please keep us informed about the changes from previous years cause I don't have much time to find out once I arrive.

Does anyone know if they are still accepting good old cash money at the circuit for food/drink?

I know some places have gone contactless/card only during COVID.

I only ask as I've just found the best part of 80 Euros in coins!

Well sounds like a result, buy some nice beer on the way down and wander over to our campsite and we will gladly help you drink it. But do pop over anyway

You are right but we don't know about that . 2 years ago they began to remove cash points for the benefit of card cahs desks. So due to covid I fear they impose the contactless card. A few years ago they tried with a card they gave you at the entrance and you had to refill as much as you ned to pay food and drink.
It was unsuccessful. But now..............

Thank you Andrew, and let's hope net year you will be down there to greet me. Will say hello to those down there, camping with Vince and Dave plus all those at the meet. Journey down there will be relaxing as i think the top speed of the van is about 50, if we are going down hill with the win behind us. This time tomorrow we should be having a nice meal at the hotel de france and watching if any old cars turn up in the square this year.
