Not that far, a couple of hours easy. Normally.
However there is only a narrow bridge a couple of klms long to get onto the Island and another narrow 10klms road from there to the track is always a long bumper to bumper traffic jam . Traffic is not smooth flowing and delays certainly leaving the Island after will be horrific. So yeah double the normal time as all the peripheral roads leading to PI also clog up. Not so bad with say 20,000 people for the Historic meet compared to many times more for the MotoGP

Helicopter is the way for the chosen few to travel!

Not for me though I shall watch from my comfy recliner with a bottle of red!

The rumours have been doing the rounds for a while but finally confirmed over the weekend was the split of Repsol and Honda after 3 decades together. Also championships with Mick Doohan, Alex Criville, Valentino Rossi, Nicky Hayden, Casey Stoner and Marc Marquez.

Repsol say they intend to continue their links to motorsport in terms of "...continuing to develop products and services of the highest quality.”

Does that mean we should expect to see Repsol stickers on another manufacturer / team?

And what about TotalEnergies to replace Repsol? With Peugeot they are used to join losers teams… Less seriously, if possible, it was talked about Petronas to join the filed.
