What do you use to get such clear shots of the cars on track?

The shots above are really nice, my 2p worth is as follows:

A good view with as little as possible to get in your way (which I struggled with this year)

A fence in the way isn't the end of the world, but it can cause a problem with the focussing of the camera if you're unlucky. In the example below, the fence has all but gone.


Le Mans 2012 by Martin_Bennett, on Flickr

A good SLR, with good glass (a good lens will make an average camera come to life, and will make a good SLR body give stunning results
Use the right settings - there's no point using a fast shutter speed as you need a sense of movement, 1/125 second is my preferred setting. DOF to be not to shallow or deep.
Learn to pan the camera - following the subject is difficult at first but comes with practice - this is where people struggle, but it does come with time.

As Martin says, good glass will allow you to 'pull through' the wire much easier. I also tend to heavily crop my pictures. As an example, the picture below was taken through the wire at Maison Blanche;

Elsewhere, Tertre Rouge is a good place to get over the top of the wire;

with the added benefit of getting some glowing;

There's a bar at the end of the pits which we used to be able to get access to, unfortunately now the eurosport studio - that's a good place.

Or by the karting at the end of the Porsche curves there's a pits area where you can get some height
