Last year was wall-to-wall sunshine for a week, all except half an hour in the race...... Same again this year please - omitting that half hour, of course!

Quite - wall to wall sunshine and not too hot either.

OH, having missed last time round, has put in an official request that it's warm this year.

Last year the weather was perfect could not wish for better even the little r... made the race more enjoyable. Lets hope it is like that again, I'm sure it will
Hot like 2005 is in my opinion a little bit to much good weather.

I must admit, that a little rain when the race is on is good, especially if it is in the final part. It just gives the race the last little spice to make it more excellent

Now I am going to run up some Icelandic mountain and hide

The worse year i remember the rain during the race was so hard that even if you were under cover the cars were going round but the weather ment that you saw a vague impression of a car pass by and then a cloud of spray within which most of the remaining cars sneaked past. That year was the worst i remember but the result was a very surprising win for a certain car so very memorable for both reasons

The worst year I have had was my first - 1980. The photo of the start showed the front row of the grid and then a wall of spray. I went with a friend no his motorcycle and we wore our full waterproofs for an awful lot of the time. The following week when we toured the Loire valley was really warm and dry.

I'd have to agree on last year. The warm weather leading up was fantastic, and the thirty minutes or so of r--- did make things interesting. I would be totally okay with a repeat this year.

That it sure did Nobby! It was just a shame that we lost one leading LMP1 car and put another out of contention......

I seem to have an awful lot of memories over the years of scorching sunshine on the Monday after the race!

Was that perhaps an English car, with a German engine, with a Japanese sponsor?

That same carbrand will do some festivities at Le Mans this year, celebrating their succes 20 years ago.
