Yes, that's a good reminder Victor. Mine were playing up last year and I need to get on and order some new ones.

There was some PR piece on Sky where Zak Brown asked Alonso "Indy or Le Mans?". And Fred answered LM - even though he's yet to race there, he thinks it gonna be more impressive of the two

Moving on

I'll be the judge of that this year, as I'm attending both.

Does anyone know where the ticket office is located so that I may do that? I know it used to be at the Rotonde but I'm not sure it's there any longer.
Well, I just called the ACO ticket office and they said that sending the vouchers was a mistake on their part; the actual pitwalk passes will be sent out in May.

If it hasn't got Fernando on the cover I can't see any reason to buy it.......

Joking aside, yes, that would probably tempt me too.

Thinking of driving down for the classic this year, main reason is because I read it is possible to do a paradelap. I'll be staying off circuit, does anyone know how to book a paradelap? And yes I know it's more than paradelaps, but it's on my bucketlist. So far I ran and walked the cicuit, now I want to drive it.

So was 2016. And 2017 probably. I wouldn't go to the bookies with too much money. Anything can happen.

Indeed. 2016 they lost on the last lap. Dunno what happened to them in 2017. Anything can still happen, but I would be surprised not to see a Toyota on the top step

They broke. Well, two of them. The only thing was that Porsche broke slightly better...... The fact that Porsche won the last two Le Mans shows how much luck you still need to win it.

It was weird though how lightning strike twice in that Toyota twice had the event won and twice reliability let them down. They’ve got less competition now, but who knows what will?

I'd put 2014 in the same category (the should have won it category), they had the race under control and were undone by the freak failure of a piece of FIA mandated equipment. Really, they have no luck when they get to Le Mans, no luck at all. I agree with Ayse, chicken counting is a risky business when it comes to Toyota at Le Mans.
