Will it even go ahead?
Discussion
Lots of talk of ‘large gatherings’ either being cancelled (see Geneva Motorshow), or potentially under threat (see Euro 2020, Tokyo Olympics, F1 etc) - what do we think are the chances of the ACO either choosing or being forced to bin the race this year?
I actually think it’s a scenario people need to prepare for - I wonder how campsite refunds etc would work?

we’ve held fire on our glamping payment this year precisely because we’d rather be in the position of having the money on our account, as opposed to arguing the toss about refunds due to some small print or technicality. Doubt we will have any issues booking either as places are not exactly limited.
I think Coronavirus is the least of my worries. Just need to avoid the food poisoning from undercooked bbq chicken, the lung cancer from too many Cafe Creme, the liver disease from too many Biere33, the perforated eardrum from listening to a V8 at 4500 rpm for hours on end, the heart disease from daily steak & frites, the broken jaw and torn mouth from crusty French bread. Corvid19 would be a nice relief.

We're not quite at the stage where all international sporting event are being canceled, but if its not sorted within a couple of months, we have a problem.
Given the pace of recent events, I reckon the next two weeks will be the decider. We're not quite at the stage where all international sporting event are being canceled, but if its not sorted within a couple of months, we have a problem.
While the death rates seem low, the current climate of fear & precaution will win.

A couple of hundred thousand people coming.from around the globe to crowd together for a few days and then disperse isn’t looking too clever at the minute
Lol...Cognitive dissonance at its best!How comes you’ve never had an issue with placing your a**e on a toilet seat sat on by lots of other a**es and not to mention your tackle brushing up against the bottom of the seat lid? How about those with herpes or c*ck warts who were on that seat before you eh?

It's not me who's making the decision though, there's events being cancelled all over the placeHow comes you’ve never had an issue with placing your a**e on a toilet seat sat on by lots of other a**es and not to mention your tackle brushing up against the bottom of the seat lid?

If Olympics and then first half of F1 season cancelled then could postpone Le Mans and provionally hold it early October (switch from Monza WEC round when most teams/drivers already booked) if all cleared up once spring/summer weather in Europe, a bit like 1968 when held at end of September due to strikes and civil unrest.
LM Classic would probably be bounced to 2021.
