Please take a look at my profile pic,
I trying to identify a concrete bench / seating inside the
Grounds of the Le Mans circuit.
It looks to be situated on a grassy area. I have never been
To Le Mans but would love to go and for personal reasons I
Need to know if this pic was taken at Le Mans

Can anyone help? Please take a look at my pic

Cheers x

Nowhere I recognize? Most buildings / structures at the circuit are made of metal and concrete block which is either rendered or painted. I can't think of any Brick walls or concrete benches shaped like that.

Your profile pic is rather odd, why all the blanked out area?

Really? It's clearly a person that the OP doesn't want shown. Seeing who it is won't help answer the question.

Doesn't look familiar. Maybe on the infield, paddock area? Post it in the Midweek Motorsport Listeners Collective on Facebook. If it's Le Mans, someone on there will figure it out.

Any chance of a clue on which year the original picture was taken? A lot of the circuit buildings have been knocked down and rebuilt in recent years.

If that is a camera phone image it may have some GPS tags (or the original might) that could possibly help ?

That doesn't ring any bells in terms of Le Mans the circuit e.g. trackside. But that doesn't mean to say it wasn't taken in the town or nearby..

The brick bonding may well help identify the country - it's very specific on the courses and headers showing, but I'm not exactly an expert on such things. It may be an English bond... The bench looks concrete so maybe a public transport stop or area?

Maybe try on ten-tenths or wait for a few LM residents here to see if they recognise it.

sorry!

ETA : Maybe near/around the Museum? There aren't too many brick buildings around the circuit...

As has been mentioned a lot of buildings have been rebuilt in and around Le Mans so it may well have changed quite a bit since the photo was taken.

Look in the OP's profile...

Edit: It appears to have gone.
