At the moment in the SE UK it's around 19C or so.

when the sun is out, it's very pleasant, when the sun is in it's a bit colder.

Le mans will be the same I'm sure.

Don't forget, we can blame these stty days we're getting on global warming (I'm sure you remember, we're all going to fry and die of sunburn) and Le Mans is to some degree guilty of throwing the odd bit of CO2 into the atmosphere so we're our own worst enemies lads wink

This is doing what private pilots do - keep checking multiple forecasts until you find one you like the look of...

Might be better if you used Méteo France properly and didn't use the national forecast. Try entering Le Mans in the box provided or the post code 72000. Incidentally, the post code of the circuit - 72019 - seems not to exist!

Dear lowdrag thank you for your reply. Was it really necessary? As per my comment and link on Thursday I am perfectly capable of using the post code function.

Fortunately the forecast has changed to only thunderstorms. No one would have enjoyed hail.

You're going to need a thicker skin if you're planning on using the "facilities" at the track - they're much more offensive than that! smile

How about Toyota taking the win, with Strakka, corvette and reiley coming home for class wins?

Might not be the most accurate forecast, but it's certainly positive smile

We've gone from hot, to hot & thunderstorms, to cold & rain, now back to hot & thunderstorms...
So using inverse logic tells me it's gonna be hot. cool
Combined with the fact that it always rains in Le Mans, we'll have great weather and get sobered up by a rainshower on thursday evening as well as one during the GBW. Perhaps some drama-adding rain by the end of the race.

Perfection.

This is a great weather link, the forecast for the race weekend has changed daily, I'm taking shorts & tee-shirts, wet weather gear, skis and snow suit and my scuba gear just to be sure.

Should cover it unless you can think of something else!
