We're off again for our annual 24 hr regression weekend - can't wait!
This year, however, we are faced with a problem in that when at the circuit we do not have enough car space to ferry everyone down to Arnage to watch the cars racing close-up at night.
Can anyone tell me, please - is there a bus service (to rely on) which can get us down there....and back to Maison Blanche?

Thanks Chaps!

you could try the speedchills shuttle bus service from bleu sud, which is close to MB. I haven't booked it but was it was available when I got other tickets with them. I think it said runs throughout the race night down to that area, can't really remember but I'm sure it was on offer.

One option we've used in the past is a taxi from the rank opposite the main entrance.

Back when the bus was (timetabled to) run through the night we would often get bored after about 30 minutes waiting for the next "every 5-7 minutes" bus and just jump in a cab. If you have a passable French speaker you could take the number and phone to be picked-up and taken back.

Looking at the timetable vincegail linked to there's going to be an over-night bus running Main Entrance->Porsche Curves->Arnage->Mulsanne again.

The queues for the official circuit shuttle bus can be huge. We normally drive down to Arnage/Mulsanne (assuming someone has stayed off the sauce). Traffic can still be bad but at least you cut out the randomness of queueing/wondering when buses turn up.

That's why we take the bus/taxi smile
