[LM24] Corner speeds at Le Mans

[lemanfan]

Here are coplete results of 24 hr. Lemans http://www.lemans.org/24heuresdumans...e/24heures.pdf

There are also pages for coners times where you can see how fast were
cars in the corners. But I don´t know which corners are T6 and T7.
T7 looks like very fast corner because fastes avg speed there during qual.
was 228,52 km/h and for T6 188,38 km/h.
Can anybody help? Thanks.

T6 is probably the last part of the esses before the Terte Rouge and T7 should be Tertre Rouge itself then.

Correct me if I'm mistaken.

But what about a speed at this corner- T7? Terte Rouge is much slower then 220+kph.

Well, then maybe:

T1 - the first right hand bend
T2 - left hand turn into the chicane
T3 - right hand turn going out of the chicane
T4 - left hand bend just after the Dunlop Bridge
T5 - right hand bend (the place where the Bugatti circuit's loop continues to the right)
T6 - Esses - left hand curve
T7 - Esses - right hand curve

Well, maybe it's tha way then.
It would have been much wiser to give the name of the corner, not the number.
