Number7 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Still no sign of parking stickers, so I mailed the ticket office and got a reply without delay:

Dear M. PETERSEN,

The shipping of your stickers has not been done yet.

Our team will start the sending of the stickers today.

You will receive an email with a DHL tracking number once the parcel leaves our building.

Best Regards,

AUTOMOBILE CLUB DE L’OUEST
Circuit des 24 Heures
CS21928
72019 Le Mans Cedex 2
www.lemans.org

We'll drive off to Le Mans next Thursday, so with a bit of luck, we will actually be able to bring the bloody sticker to Parking Expo.

Haven’t been to Mulsanne corner for main race but used to do go for fast plateaus 4,5 & 6 at Classic a few years back at 11pm - great corner and wonderful acceleration sights and sounds as streak off to the flat out kink.

Above bits are one of my favourite roads on Sunday post race possibly and Monday morning afterwards- Tertre Rouge to start of Porsche curves (minus chicanes and with unfortunate roundabouts at Mulsanne and Arnage corners is well worth doing.
The drive around the circuit has become de rigeur for us on the Tuesday...

One little and brief quizz for you champions. Who said: "To be honest, I did it purely for the money at first. I went to Le Mans hoping that the car would break down. I came away in love with the place"?

I'll admit the hyperpole session was quite exciting last year. From my viewpoint you could see how "on the edge" the Toyota was. But as you say, once it's done, it's done.

Still interested to know more about the Friday evening historic stuff and whether it'll be identical to the race day running.

I've seen an official Instagram post where it's been reduced to 40mins. Which is more logical, if not still a bit long!

I was jokingly going to write perhaps its the other way round and Hyperpole ceremony is on for 40 mins and Razorlight are on for 3 hours.. Moral of the story, don't joke about things like that..

Local legends - can you indicate where the Place du Jet d'Eau is? Couldn't really see from Google Maps. Near Place des Jacobins?



Not heard anything more about this Wednesday exhibition, but figure if they've got 80+ cars that have competed at Le Mans that's amazing.

Where is the Place du Jet D'Eau? It sounds a bit like the very old red building at the back of the stands!

Simmi, fontaine du jet d'eau as you suggest near place des Jacobins. If you dont have to pay extra money for, I find the museum worth a visit. Le Musée des 24 Heures du Mans, main entry of the track. Only if the 80+ cars displayed place du jet d'eau are supercars as advertised and not LM winners or other rarities. Indeed.

Place du Jet d'Eau is the area at the bottom of the steps which lead up to (or down from, obviously) the cathedral, to the left of the cathedral as you face it from Jacobins. Scrutineering was held there the year they started the building works for the 'new Jacobins centre', far too cramped, so they moved scrutineering to Republique the following year. Even Republique is cramped for scrutineering, but I believe the access routes from the circuit are preferred. Scrutineering in the old car park behind Jacobins was the best location for scrutineering, by far.

I've always assumed Jet d'Eau is reference to, or name of, the fountain which the steps to the cathedral surround.
