included in above are my thoughts on how Le Mans 24hrs has changed and how professional and corporate it has needed to be to survive and draw in the major motor manufacturers

LE MANS GENERAL WARNING

No two Le Mans stewards react the same - be they checking for bottles at a circuit entrance or letting you park in a carpark you have already paid for! Everything is totally subject to the vagaries of the French ACO Stewards. This will become a recurring theme so just get used to it. As you can imagine, a circuit this big, over 8.5 miles, and all its outer areas needs hundreds of stewards. There is turnover and inevitably some are not as well briefed as they should be. So patience “mon brave”! .... it’s all part of the charm of Le Mans. So Calm down! ..........& have another beer!
