I can't see how they can run a Le Mans sized spectator event this year and I also can't see how you could run Le Mans without spectators given that 11 1/2 hours of sports car racing in the dark isn't exactly prime TV fodder. Actually it's worse than that when you look at the sheer number of personnel involved with 60 teams, 180 drivers, an 8.5 mile track, the massive number of on track hours all around the clock requiring multiple shifts, etc. That's ignoring all the teams and drivers that aren't based in Europe too.
