"La chaîne météo" shows contradictory informations with the site I gave you. We have still chances to have no rain for the race.

I must admit I dont believe any forecasts more than a day or two ahead. Maybe thats why I pressed ahead and got drenched camping in the New Forest over Spring Bank holiday!

Accuweather is predicting showers on Saturday/16th for the day, but partly cloudy for Sat. night/Sunday.

Hopefully, it won't be anything like LM 1980, '92, '95, or 2001. This is one instance where I'll say thanks for traction control(like it'll help much in a downpour or a flooded track) and good drivers.

But then again, I don't trust forcast that go out more than 36 hours.

Well, Accuweather seems to have changed its mind a little -

They're now predicting Saturday as cloudy with some sunshine, 22 deg C, Saturday night RAIN , 10deg C, and then Sunday is back to 'nice' with cloudy/sunny spells and 22 deg C......

Call me the devils advocate or something but I wouldn't mind a bit of rain. It always adds another dimension to a race. Just not as much rain as the nurburgring 24hr had

Not looking all that good according to Weather.com

But, usually they aren't too accurate past a day or so. So let's all do the dry dance. Like now.
