Just thought I'd record that I'm all set for La Sarthe 2008, this time a solo trip. Booked for Maison Blanche and Parking Blanc as usual, via MRI (I know, reasonably expensive etc, but I'm too old to camp and I have the dosh!). Separately I've booked Le Shuttle for early Friday morning, back Monday afternoon.

The only problem has been getting a hotel as it seems the major firms have, as usual, booked everything within reasonable range. Nonetheless, I've got a room for Friday and Sunday nights so it's going to be head down under the duvet in the car for part of early Sunday, which is my usual kipping place. It means I can once again experience Sun up, the fantastic (but eerily empty) atmosphere at Le Mans at maybe 05:00 and the first beer of the day: what a combination!

By the way, if anyone is interested, Page and Moy's website is indicating they are all sold out for 2008, meaning that it looks like the Brits will again be there in serious numbers.
