Every year.
Listening to Radio Le Mans over www which is great as usual and listened live when at the real races.
Had one of the best advertising strap lines a good few years back - You'll come in a jiffy". Jiffy being a condom manufacturerEfnoEfno
Almost as good as a Renault advert for a car on UK Classic FM radio also a few years ago - sultry female voice "I'm going to put on my little black number and ask my husband to give me one".

Is Eurosport 1 free to view on Satellite?? And which satellite. I suspect ASTRA 1 at 19.2E.
Le Mans org website wrote that France 3 would be en claire, ie unencrypted, for 15 hours. Tuned in and still clearly encrypted.

I'm listening to the coverage and they have just said you can watch from www.eurosport1.com - I have not tried as I have it live on on TV.

What drama in the final 2 hours. Extraordinary and gripping stuff. Shame Rebellion 3 had issues and just amazing for Aston Martin. Now repeat next year in F1. LMP2 sprint battle stunning till 38 cracked and splashed.
The apparent just ran off the track crashes were well weird and Ferrari 71 stopping on last lap trying to go a lap to far. Wow.
Toyota hatrick equalling Peugeot race wins.
3 UK National Anthems and winning drivers from England, Northern Ireland and Scotland.
As John Hindaugh on RLM said "a great British race which just happens to be held in France."
I didn't know Buemi (or Nakajima?) was a Brit?

It's a little sad that there are only three manufacturers in GTE this year. Is this just another Covid fallout? Kind of thought there'd be the new Corvette at least.

Had to sleep sometime!!, so missed the Toyota drama.
Beitske V, Tatiana C and Sophia F did really incredibly well - forgot them. Was great watching BV adapt to the Formula W esports.
Another great memory was at the 1991 running, listening and feeling that spine tingling howl down the start/finish and on Mulsanne.
And the strap line the next day:
Round and Round Le Mans
The rugged Mazda ran
The others also ran
As well as sitting overnight on the pit box overhangs in the mid 80s before the rebuild.

I used to live in South Africa and Jiffy were a plastic bag company
there. When I got back to England, I could never understand why people sniggered when they used that expression, now I know, thank you.
