[LM24] Le Mans 2025 - 14/15 June 2025 - Who is Going?

[Aysedasi]

And we're off.......

[JT240Z]

Will have to see what the weather is going to be like.

Seriously, this year (2024) must have been miserable. Cold and wet for both Sat and Sun.

[Aysedasi]

The weather doesn't really matter. Despite my very specific weather order being completely ignored (I am in the process of typing a formal complaint...) it was a great event. Miserable? Not a bit. This is Le Mans. We don't do miserable at Le Mans.

[JT240Z]

Come join us at the Petit Le Mans and we can show you a great time as well.

[dwh43scale]

Just home after a short but good weekend au Mans. Next year would be my 30th LM so I probably should try to go !

[Mike E]

Yep, already planning.

[GT6]

will have to see, thought about it for a second and decided yep will be there again

[whitemr2]

My year runs from juni to juni, so yes.

[vincegail]

Formally booked the gîte in Rouen for the sunday evening after the race today, so guess I'm going

[Simmi]

Will be there to see Peugeot get the win next year.

[Truckosaurus]

Yes, please.

[Entr0py]

Hell yeah,

I've watched WEC @ Silverstone, Monza, and Spa. Can't wait to hit Le Sarthe next year. Will defo appreciate any advice on where to camp.

Anywhere you can get a ticket....

The crucial thing is to be on the lookout for when the ticket sales start so you can jump in.

(or just pay a premium with an agency, which is what we do - I can recommend JustTickets)

As to where to camp, I'd start by looking at the Houx, Houx Annexe, Epinettes, Hippodrome area, as that's closer to the circuit than the likes of Beausejour.

Well your light blue chair was waiting for you in the campsite Gavin, the guest chair got considerable usage again as we had quite a few visitors

I'm sorry I didn't make it over to say hello to you guys this year. It was a fantastic edition but despite being there for the longest time ever it went very quickly and I seemed to be all over the place and still short of time.
I did make it to the driver's parade this year which was a first for me (and probably last).
Plus we made a trackside on the Mulsanne again.
Other than that we pretty much based ourself in our grandstand (ACO) partly to do with the weather.
I got completely soaked at Tertre Rouge at about 1:00 a.m. on Saturday night and that was the decision for me to get the tram back to the town apartment where we stayed.
I'm hoping to stay in the same place next year.
I hope you all had a good weekend.

[Peter Mallett]

Oh well seeing as you asked.

[claude2cv]

Wouldn't miss it

Thanks! I'm going round in circles...paralysis by analysis.

I think my friends are set on camping at the Porsche Curves as offered by the Motorsports Travel Destinations agency. The thought of an unreserved pitch is too much for them, is a pitch a Houx numbered or do you take your chances?

May I ask how much your package was? I'm finding it quite hard to get a rough cost as detail is sparse.

[Peter Mallett]

Porsche curves is very good but you don't get a reserved pitch. Your pitch is allocated upon arrival. The packages are for Thursday to Monday. You can pay an extra day for Wednesday arrival from 3pm but it can be expensive. There is no electric hook up but the track view is very good.

[Truckosaurus]

Houx is numbered.

If you are arriving Tuesday or Wednesday then I'd not be worried about the reserved plots.

If you are arriving Saturday morning it is worth it.

I saw lots of complaints about Travel Destinations this year, seemingly it is under new management. (including charging 'per day' for camping etc)

As for cost, I believe I paid around £400 for a half share in a camping pitch, entry and a grandstand seat in the ACO stand. It is that annoying time of year where everywhere has taken down their 2024 pricelists and not published the 2025 ones yet.

Yeah I just found the forum! That's put me very much off them now. Thanks for the info. That's great.

final question... which tribune? Sommer (T16) or Raccordment Motul (T23)?
