I'm looking at going down for this too, does anyone know of any reasonable B&B's in Le Mans town, or perhaps one of the 'Formula 1' style cheap hotels ? I think it will be too cold for camping .

However, I don't think the campsites will be open. We spent Saturday night on a piece of litter-strewn waste ground at the Karting circuit and Sunday night in a motorway rest area somewhere near Chartres! Both nights were under canvas. Since there's less peripheral activity during the test weekend, it's easy to get away from the circuit promptly and you could find a hotel in, say, Alencon or somewhere else on the route home. |

I remember that during the last test week-ends, the circuit was opened for the scutineering, but you must have your ticket. Will it be the same this year? I can call the ACO to try to get the information.

Enceinte Générale (General Enclosure) ticket for the week or for the practices, for the Mulsanne – Arnage bends, and even the Pitwalk. Choose your means of access to the “24 Heures du Mans” Circuit in order to experience the competition to the full. Your ticket will also give you access to the Test Day on Sunday, 25th April 2011
Question is if you can get inside the Circuit on Saturday for Scrutineering .??? |

Just heard via Twitter there will be a maximum of 76 cars present on test day!!!!! Sounds like it's going to be a fun day if that many turn up!

I'd make that 76 to be what remains of the initial 56 + 10 which are announced next week, plus 10 FLM cars.
