LM maps

[Osella]

can anyone recommed which is the best big-scale map of the LeMans area? i think in future i need to be more familiar with the local roads.... will a regular general admission ticket gain access to the other viewing spots (which are??) ?

Can't really help with a local map, but I can confirm that an Enciente Generale and a Contramarque coupon will get you in at all other accessable parts of the track - which are, to be honest, the enclosures ar Virages Arnage and Mulsanne.

These are accessable - if you don't fancy taking the car - by shuttle bus (Navette) which departs from the Expo car park across the road from the museum. Shuttles are free - just wave your race ticket at the driver.

theres a have decent ordinance survey map on club-arnage.

i think.

club arnage's map is taken from the blue series of maps. Finally picked one up at superU in Arnage this year, very good detail. It helped a little with the exit this year, but in reality, after a few years you get to know all the relevant roads.

You can get the blue maps in UK, try Stanfords web site.
They are 1cm=250m and pretty good, published by the French equivilant of OS. Map you need is Serie Bleue, 1719E, Le Mans.

I agree with Barry R...

The Series Bleue 1719E is by far the best map to get. £6.95 from Stanfords as he mentions. Covers the whole of the circuit down to mulsanne and beyond...

The Series Red of Le Mans is not so good around the track, but gives street names in the centre of Le Mans.
