Radio Le Mans is broadcast non stop throughout the event on FM - radios are sold all round the circuit.

It's one of the small things that makes such a huge difference to enjoyment of the event. I remember going in the Eighties when you got an hourly two minute update in English on the tannoy. If you missed it you just had to wait another hour....

Forecast for more than 10 days isn't worth the paper it is printed on.

Small ear piece type radios are sold at the circuit. When I was last there several years ago they were $14 Euros or so.

Ditto for forecast for the next day, in my experience.

I like to have the forecast a few days before. The Farmer's Almanac is a more accurate long range forecast than modern techniques.

I'm sure Dave will make sure the weather is perfect for our stay in France.

You can just bring any small FM radio and headphones with you. That's what I did in 2014 at Le Mans and was able to listen to RLM the whole time.

They tell me the schedule should be ready in the next 24 hours. As soon as I have a copy to distribute, I will e-mail it out.

Non, je n'ai pas inventé cela. Ce que vous dites que vous ne comprenez pas mon français?

Ed Je suis surpris que vous pouvez red mon français. Je pense que j'ai été très clair avec ma réponse
