First Le Mans - 2022
Discussion
We (my brother and myself) are planning our first Le Mans in 2022 hoping it's still in June!
Plan is to go over on the Wednesday before, Newhaven to Dieppe and carrying on into France for two weeks afterwards.
I've a few questions for now...
a) Been looking on the ticket agents sites and as the moho is over 7m (7.35m) looks like we'd need to book two spaces in most sites. Any recommendations on which sites? No desperate need for electric if the options are better.
b) The race finishes at 4pm on the Sunday, so the plan is to head an hour out of Le Mans towards Tours area to a campsite to service the motorhome, empty and fill water etc and have a rest after the weekend before heading off on Monday. What time would we expect to get out of the circuit and is there a mad rush of people doing the same?
c) Would everyone recommend a grandstand ticket?
Anybody any other advice? Thanks for now.

Race is now 21st/22nd August
If you're not going far on the Sunday night I'd give it a couple of hours, although you'll be going the opposite way to most of the traffic.
Personally I've never had a grandstand seat, but even in the best case scenario we're not likely to be able to wander around much and it could be very hot so a seat in the shade could be a good idea (so not the pits grandstand).
Personally if I didn't have a rolled over booking I'd be waiting and seeing on this year's race though.
Thanks, I'm planning next year (2022) assuming it's only moved to August this year.If you're not going far on the Sunday night I'd give it a couple of hours, although you'll be going the opposite way to most of the traffic.
