Thinking about going to the Friday Service at Le Mans (Saint-Saturnian) but camping at Beauséjour at the time. I’m assuming that it is possible to drive between the two i.e. not trapped within the circuit boundaries due to closures?

Nope, not trapped.

Either left out of Beausjour, under the track at the Porsche Curves, and right at the roundabout to head north or straight north out of Beausjour, up past Karting/Houx/etc and following whatever random route the police are picking this year to get going north towards Carrefour.

Just head for Saint-Saturnian and as soon as you're past the A11 you'll see "Classic British Welcome" signs - though probably already in the train of cars all going the same way.

Signed up ... A little over excited and since realised in wrong type of car this year, so either need to figure out park and ride or hoping for leniency as we will at least be stickered up

They are very strict on the entry criteria for two seaters or classic cars so if your car doesn't meet them, I'm afraid you'll be turned away. There'll be plenty of public parking just outside though to walk in.

Noted about car requirements. Pistonheads specific ticket not required then, I assume?

Blimey, Pistonheads area already fully booked.

Can I assume 2 x F-Type Jags rocking up will be allowed in to the general GBW areas?

Indeed. Anything with 2 doors gets waved in.

We’re taking the Corvette C8 up there. Never been before, looks like it should be an excellent day out. What’s parking like. Is it total bedlam.
