Veggie New Grandstand not all that far from Tertre Rouge Corner

On the outside of the track, with a view of TR corner and the beginning of Hunaudieres straight, a new Grandstand is erected.
Tickets 60 euro, non allocated seating. "to meet demand"

Demand must be really really high this year, if the ACO is putting up new grandstands and turning football looker rooms into hotelrooms.

Hope this doesn't obscure my view from my tent too much

I suspect that will be on the bank above the second part of the Esses looking towards Tertre Rouge. They had a couple of stands there years ago.

Yes, as I said somewhere else, I sat in what I suspect is the same location back in 2006. I don't think it could be moved any closer to TR corner.

TR/Esses Grandstand

No, I'm sure it had a roof. I wouldn't have bought the ticket otherwise.


EDIT:

From the ACO page (autotranslated - Tertre 'Red'!!)


TRIBUNE 01 TERTRE RED
CIRCUITS OF LE MANS
- Temporary Covered grandstand located outside side track Tertre Rouge Esses
- unnumbered seats (seats)
- Privileged view of the Esses and Tertre Rouge early Mulsanne
- Entries closest: E14 (Tertre Rouge) and E16 (Bridge Panorama)

Perhaps our trusty Frenchman on the ground (Bat) to snag a couple of pictures of the precise location of this grand stand and what it looks like?

When are you arriving, most of the pitches against the fence with good views will by gone Sunday/Monday but as the ground slopes towards the track you will still get a view from a little further back.
The pitches by the fence appear to be the best spots against the fence, but they are noisy and offer very little privacy so perhaps those further back are better.

Few new stands to try in the practice sessions.

Hopefully they'll stick another big screen up somewhere too - ideally the Esses.

When I first saw the thread title I had a gulp, thought they might put it inside the track and take away one of the best photo spots on the circuit.

Maybe will be able to get a slightly different aspect of cars starting off down the Mulsanne?

And also can take some shots of Simon and Co on the 20th beer of the day

Yes, I have been in contact with Bacon. BUT I did NOT inhale!
Looks like I'll be lucky to see anything from back amongst the trees, as I arrive on Wednesday in Tertre Rouge campsite.
