Le Mans Classic postponed till 2021
- Thread starter JP Verweij
- Start date
It was bound to happen sadly. At least we have a complete year before trying again, unfortunately many of the events that have been postponed & given a a new date later on this year may well have to postpone again I fear, so at least (hopefully) we have some clarity regarding the LMC.
What will be a bitter pill though is the 10% admin. charge for those who can't make the 2021 dates & wish to cancel for a refund, that's drivers, exhibitors, spectators, everyone. The website also mentions a limited window later on this year in which to apply for refunds.
Still, if we're sitting here thinking about motor racing today we are amongst the fortunate ones.....
Stay safe & best wishes to you all. Steve.

Hi Have a motorhome /RV .The plan was, ferry to Holland 24 June MotoGP Assen 26-28 June, drive down to Le Mans for the classic return home the Tuesday after. Half the trip has been knocked on the head , just waiting for the other bit to go in the bin. Have to get back to sharpening the nail scissors now so I can finnish cutting the lawn tomorrow.Regards David
Just received an email from the ACO. The French policy is a credit note, rather than a refund less 10% that they suggested earlier.

Well the European Commission decided differend on that matter on 14th of may. As France is a member of it.... they have to refund the whole lot.
I don't care, Ill just wait another year assuming Ill make it another year..
I must say, I got my tickets through Travel Destiniations and they called me up and asked me kindly what I preferred.

So, the ACO are being a bit naughty then?
Nice to hear Travel Destinations are doing the right thing.

Following. Sounds like a fun event and, all going well, I might be in France then.
Do not hurry doing your organisation ( say organising your travel) ...... things are changing so kickly every day and week !!!
Until vaccine will low down the contamination at 5000 a day government will not allow any more sport days ; yesterday Prime minister annonced that Saturday we will be under limited lock down ( 6.30PM ) for all the country due to increasing situation and possible new variant discovering cases
SO ...... say stafe , wait and see
In addition
there will be for sure in the future restriction or permit to enter the country ( Valid PCR test or watever vaccine passeport stuff ) and probably some "lock down days" in hotels before to be able to do tourism !!!!!

I allready have my tickets, 2020 tickets postponed to 2021. I expect them to be postponed to 2022.
Hi, the tickets for the Assen GP and LeMans Classic that I bought last year are valid for this years events, so with fingers crossed I have booked my ferry crossings. Looks like I will get my first covid jab by the end of February and second jab before the end of May, that means should be fit to travel if allowed to.
As an aside, I only clocked up 1026 miles between M.O.T.s in the motorhome this last 12 months, 5000/6000 is the norm. Hope to get out a lot more this year.
Regards David

I feel for you guys ........My relatives in Italy are going nuts...
Theres no right answers but we are fleeing to Florida soon, I dont know why they dont die and walk on beaches nude, but Im going down, this lock up is getting rough.
I think Texas and Florida have the answer, let everyone loose, some live some die.
We cant be like this forever.
Terrible times.
We cancelled our 60th for etype reunion in europe as well.
Stay safe everyone

Lemans Classic, just postponed to July 2022.
Wifey and I got fed up with the whole "lock down" thing, 'threw all the "what ifs" out the window, 'got our Pfizer shots, and now in about 2 weeks we'll supposedly be "fully immune" to C-19. After that time, God willing, we intend to go wherever we please whenever we please and do whatever we please. So, on 4/3, for the 1st time in over a year, we're going out for dinner at our favorite local restaurant! 'Set that up 10 minutes after we'd had our 1st shots! Friends of ours (who've also been vaccinated) will be joining us. ;-)
('Just as aside: Given the fact that wifey and I have far more years behind us than we can possibly have ahead of us, we decided to get the shots and enjoy whatever time we have left by adopting the idea that whatever might show up 20 years down the road as a 'serious complication' arising from having been inoculated will just not be an issue for us by then anyway...and we're sticking with that!)
