Thats the way it goes, you have to expect ticket companies to adjust their prices with the poor exchange rate, I expect our quoted prices will be a touch more when we pay for our stuff, but we dont care, we dont want Le mans and its organisation cogs to be the Woolworths of the motor racing callender do we.

I agree, after 20 years a price rise will not put me off.
