When we go away from the circuit when there is no action on we have a comfortable room and bed with loads of eateries nearby. People will swear that you don't have the same experience unless you camp, but it's complete tosh really - Le Mans is what you make it - what you want it to be.

That may be the case alright and I've done it that way in the past at Grands Prix - but with disability a problem now I have to look at other ways of doing it. Being mobile and going to Arnage etc just isn't doable. Hotels as far as I can see means more walking, more standing in queues with no chance of sitting down.
Also, I have to admit that I want stay at a racing circuit during a race. I may be forced to do it because of disability but it also has a certain appeal!
