Thanks for bumping this thread!
 I went for the fourth time August last year. Everytime there is more painting. |

The chap walking towards the camera was doing a feasibility study on whether the circuit buildings could be sympathetically restored. (Reims itself is a building site). The big problem is the corroding concrete and ironically the graffiti under the grandstands has actually protected it!
   If you like Architecture, the City of Reims itself is worth a visit. The tours of the Champagne houses and caves are also worth a go as well - hic! |

I'm glad this thread is popular !
Dug a last couple of shots out of the camera. A view from 'under the Dunlop Bridge' except of course there is no Dunlop Bridge....  And - even though the sun was entirely in the wrong position - couldn't resist playing silly wotsits....

Another pic for Reims-lovers..
Still sorting out my holiday snaps and rather liked this one. Obviously not taken from the same spot, but it's the same building and stretch of roadway....   Spooky !
