For me it is. If I try and watch the whole 24 hours while I'm there I zone out by sun-rise. I find it best to take a few breaks and acknowledge the atmosphere.
You've simply got to be awake for dawn. No RLM, no camera, no programme. Just you, a coffee and a pair of eyes. The bit I'll really really miss this year. |

How do you spell 'wuss'.......?
It's not so much dawn you need to be awake for, but the night itself. The most magical few hours of the year - just not to be missed. You can sleep later in the morning when all the Audis have retired if you need to.... |

I agree, but I don't really want either team to have that kind of back luck - last year was exceptional (I hope) and spoiled what could have been a great race. I want to see a battle all the way!

Regarding the original topic - I am making the trip with a group of sportscars virgins so any added extras to make sure they can't turn down a return in 2012 is appreciated. |
