Last minute grandstand help

[24lemons]

I decided last night that getting a grandstand seat might help to make things a bit easier for my Dad if the going gets tough at Le Mans. Obviously most are sold out but of the ones that are available can anyone offer any advice as to which may be better?

The available stands;

T03 Chapelle
T04 Panorama
T11 Wimille
T22 Wollek
T34 Stands (above pits)

Thanks!

Wimille is okay.

Good views down to dunlop chicane and down the start finish. Covered with views of a big TV.

I'm biased since I'm in Panorama, which has a good view of the Dunlop Chicane and the giant screen there. Being by the bridge there is easy access to the village with the better toilet facilities. Parking Rouge is a short stroll away where I will have food and drink stashed in the car.

I think I sat in Wimille or the one next to it once. Is it more or less opposite pit out? Ive sat in Dunlop too so Panorama seems a good bet. Can you see much from the stands above the pits if you are sat in the middle? I usually go up there during quali but only to hang over the rail at the front.

You can't see much of the pit lane from T34.



Yes, T11 Wimille is by pit out. T22 Wollek by pit in doesn't have a roof.

Don't go above the pits themselves, it's a poor view unless you're front row ( and having to lean over) and there's no screen opposite you.

[24lemons]

Ah that's what I suspected. I suppose that stand is cheaper for a reason.

If you can get them, any opposite the pits are brill.
T16-T21
T16 Sommer is my fav. Opposite a big screen and pit exit. So start finish stright and Dunlop curve.
They are available, but only through agancies.

Just found this rather snazzy 3d-virtual-view-simulator-thing on the La Mans website. Maybe a bit late for this year but worth looking at.
