For me it is the moment practice starts, all the promises are on show. Wednesday evening is the best as teams try for times then, Thursday is normally race set ups.
Although grid positions are somewhat by the way in a 24hr race everyone wants to be fastest, as a race driver should.
Then the Friday, walk around the pits and seeing the cars.
The actual start and first hour are good racing but it seems more a race when they settle into their groove which brings the second best, Tetre Rouge at dusk, seeing the brakes glow red and the noise as they head off down the straight.
