Let's improvise, adapt and overcome.

I first read that as referring to a decision on which campsites would be open. But in fact gramatically it could equally mean a decision on whether to open any campsites. It is ambiguous, which might be a result of it being a translation.

What do you actually get for that? Your name scrawled somewhere or a cardboard cut out of you in a grandstand?

What looks like some kind of plastic plaque with your name on it put up at the back of T17…

i think it is like the bike events, so you watch the live pictures on your pc and the view of you watching is shown as a small part on the fan wall, along with hundreds of others. Not sure if they can tell if you have gone for a pee or they still show an empty chair.

No, I think it's just a plaque.

Who would spend a single second to look at that wall - other than to find your own name? And by logic most people on there probably aren't attending anyway.
Looks like a weird memorial to rinsed Le Mans fans. |

Well i am not sure they will get many people paying for that unless the wall and plagues remain permanent in which case you might buy one and then go and look at it in future years, or perhaps buy a plague for those fans who have past away and will never visit again.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this is a way to keep the money coming, as they must have lost quite a bit last year without spectators. I guess you can’t blame them

I wonder how GDPR rules will look at a public sign with name and a membership number...

Anyone who gets tickets had better spend the time before the race hiding away from human interaction for fear of catching The Lurgy and being housebound for the big day.

I'm still confused, if Is don't ask for a refund, do I automatically get tickets????
I don't want that amount of tickets. |

You'll be offered the equivalent number of tickets you ordered for 2020, at which point you will need to advise the ticket office which of those tickets you will actually need this year and they will refund you the difference.

They are running out of time to offer the tickets up and go through this process before Thursday. I've been emailed this morning asking me to renew my ACO membership but nothing about the tickets I'm entitled to.
I'm fully expecting not to hear from them and then a confusing check-out experience on Thursday. |
