Good... not as good as the Sebring posters still, but it's better.

Yeah that Sebring poster is hard to beat but Im liking this, a nice contrast between the two sides of the poster.

I see there are TWO versions in circulation, one with the Audi, the other with the Peugeot.

The Peugeot version could be/is a joke, no official logos + the pilot of that pre-war Bentley looks an awful lot like a certain German 7 times champ of something if you ask me...

I think photoshop-wise they are both a bit ropey to be honest. But it is a solid idea and something the fans will appreciate.

Have to admit Le Mans does not really have the greatest posters. Would be good to see them try and do something a bit more novel/stylised like some of them used to be back in the day.

I assume the Pug poster will be replaced by a Toyota poster. Instead of a third poster.

Full-res: http://www.lemans.org/wpphpFichiers/..._mans_2012.jpg

Idea is one of the better ones from recent years, but still a bit amateurish because the Audi is a render, but the Toyota is a real photo in not so great quality (see the full-res version, how will that look in a giant poster?). Would be better if the Toyota was made to look more like a render or drawing.

If more matching photo of TS030 was not available, why not go for a vintage style then? http://i.imgur.com/A3rq1.jpg

Even the tower is there before being blended into the Lemans style grandstand.

I think we agonise and criticise these things far too much. We all know they're a pale shadow of posters of the past, but it doesn't really matter all that much, I suppose.....

I'd love to see a poster done in a style similar to A.M. Cassandre's poster designs.
