Ok, which glossy mag should i be buying to get the lowdown on the teams etc?

Is there a mag that specialises in Le Mans series cars? If so, will smiths have it?

Need something to read before next thurs... and no gags about 'specialist magazines' please

Cheers
Rob

There used be a American Le Mans (ALM Series) magazine but I've not seen it for a while, the usual best mag to get is the issue of AutoSport the week before Le Mans as this will have a pull out suppliment with everything you need to know in it

Hi Rob,

This is worth a look:

www.trmg.co.uk/lemans/index.htm

More of a bumper pack than a mag (but then you'd hope so for £15 inc P&P!)

Still, as you're staying in a hotel, you can afford this type of thing anyway!

Regards

John

Go for Autosport. Easily the best and most up to date info and it's in English and considerably cheaper than a programme when you get there.

american le mans series & sportscar racer used to be a great mag, but sadly run out of money so is no longer in publishing...

best bet is to buy this thursdays autosport as it has a pull out guide, usually given away with next weeks autocar as well...

always wondered why autosport releases the lm guide a week earlier... this year it clicked as we're going down on the wednesday i won't get it if its released the thursday before the race... d'oh!!!
