To be honest, the tickets were given to Peugeot employees & their families-most looked like they'd never been to a race circuit before and probably wouldn't have lasted the full 6 hours anyway! |
It doesn't really matter though- Peugeot presumbly got some PR benefit from doing it, and some of those people might justhave gone home thinking 'that was a good day out, I'll do that again sometime'
The first sportscar race I ever went to (and about the second race meeting I'd ever been to) was a Silverstone Group C race in about 1985 and I basically went because I'd won a couple of tickets in a competition in the local paper, (OK, I was already interested in cars and motorsport, but I was really more of a rally fan as a teenager). I've been hooked on sportscar racing ever since
