Many thanks for the update. If you have good news for us in a couple of weeks, might that include Arnage/Mulsanne coverage?

unfortunately Bentley, Muslanne and Arnage are not in the cards for this year.

Many thanks for the reply. Not the reply I had hoped for, of course, but I suspected as much. That said, coverage of the main spectator areas is infinitely better than none. Fingers crossed then!

I'll rent one as well. No doubt. Would be nice if I could use it on Beasejour near the Porsche curve, where we usually camp!

If it is at least the same as last year we will rent one again for sure. It was very helpful in keeping up with everything during the race.

I would definitely rent one. It served me very well in 2008, gives you a much better idea of who's where on track...

Re: Mobile TV 2011
It's gone painfully quiet on this. Did we have an idea of when they will announce whether
or not they will be at Le Mans this year? |

Well, if they're hoping to do it, with just 2 months to go, they really need to announce their intentions p.d.q., I'd say.......

Asked them again if they had any news on the matter. They say they still don't know. So no new news... :/

I will be certainly interested when the whole circuit area is covered.

With so little time to go, I wouldn't be putting money on seeing these devices at Le Mans this year.

Not looking good is it? What a shame!
I know I said keep the faith earlier in the thread but mines starting to fade now. They said there would be announcement mid April, well now its almost May and still nothing. |

Nah dead in the water I'd say. A real shame. I asked them again a few weeks ago and I got a reply that seemed like it was to someone elses question.

Yep, either they have serious financial concerns or marketing leaves a tad to be desired......

Honestly I think they have just thrown everything into F1.

I'm not going to stick my neck out as to whether Kangaroo will or will not be at le Mans this year, but I'm willing to bet that they are currently still in negotiations with the ACO.
It might be worth remembering that the question of Kangaroo's sound feed at Le Mans was not resolved in 2009 until 29 May. |

I suppose so, I guess it all seemed to go much more smoothly (and quickly) last year....

Just wanted to add my name to the list of people eagerly awaiting news - plenty of takers here if you're listening Fanvision!

FWIW, I've sent LemansmobileTV a PM, but I suspect he/she isn't looking in here much, if at all, otherwise we'd probably have heard something by now.....

Either the ACO are being slow or they can't make it pay. Perhaps the infrastruture is difficult to acheive. There may be cost savings by spreading it over many events in F1.
However uptake seemed high to me, I saw a lot of them and we are talking about it - not that this proves anything. I wonder how many are rented compared to an F1 meeting? |

Apologies for the delayed reply.
We've been accessed substantial duties and levies to deliver the service to all of you in France. So much so that it would have a significant impact on pricing. This is not something we feel is in the interest of our customers and we're working to resolve this. Time is against us and we of all companies feel that Le Mans is a premier event we want to be present at. Its fans like you that keep us coming. We have our legal team on it. We hope it can be resolved quickly. As we find out more we'll update all of you. |
