Hi

i'm reaching out to the PH community for some help.

i will be visiting France from Australia in September and after leaving Paris i am keen to do this

http://www.lemansdriver.fr/autos/stage-une-journee...

i am having real trouble getting answers from them, particularly is instruction available in English ? and the medical certificate that is required must that be done by a French practitioner ? i compete in club level motor sport in Australia and we make a medical declaration to CAMS the governing body, is this a similar requirement ?

its a pretty expensive day out and i want to get my facts straight before committing !!

any help or advice appreciated,

thanks

Yes that is expensive. I reckon you should use the enquiry section on the top right of the page and use google translate to help you send the message. Explain your circumstances etc.

Wow that looks a cool gig even just on the Bugatti circuit !

The request is for a medical certificate attesting to suitability for motorsport - no mention of French - so in theory your Oz medical double-evidenced by your race license should suffice

They should be able to confirm that in advance - whether they will acknowledge any English instruction is another matter - unlike any other part of the ACO there is no English site for the school - having said that it is unlikely an instructor would not be able to manage some English if only to help his racing career
