2021 - Don't get too excited
Discussion
Had a wonderful day yesterday. The Le Mans Legends especially were ace, Bentley LMP car, Porsche GT1, Maserati MC12, multiple DBR9, etc. Visiting their paddock today.
Especially in the evening more people than I was expecting, many French families. A pleasing crowd IMO. No yobs. British (and their cars) sadly missed though. Arnage festival much smaller than expected. Spotted a lovely XKSS

We got here yesterday, camping in Bleu Nord is only half full, lots of Dutch/French/German but very few Brit cars to be seen.
Circuit attendance looks good for the Thursday considering they haven't sold out on the 50k attendance.
Had a good wander round some of the stalls and bars in the village last night, good vibes, busy but plenty of room (which nice)
Looking forward to the weekend!

Definitely less UK visitors and clearly lots of families who have taken the opportunity of the reduced capacity to introduce their children to the race.
In some ways it’s quite a nice atmosphere.
Still seems plenty of food and drink outlets including the tartiflette stall behind tribune 17.

We’ve tried the awful hotel to find it is closed, apparently in preparation for tomorrow.
We have also explored arnarge and mulsanne. They are open and seem to have car parking available.
At Mulsanne we have been told that they are charging for parking, but either that is incorrect or they are collecting cash on the day. No parking passes have been sold as far as we have been able to determine.

I had the marshals round yesterday late afternoon and they were chuckling about the Fun Cup and one car on the Mulsanne losing most of its bodywork, ripped off the chassis by air pressure. so I thought I'd look up this race and learn a bit. I couldn't believe my eyes! €11,500 plus VAT entry fee Is that just for this race or the series?
