I note from the Wiki that not many people are staying on Bleu Sud. Is there a reason for this or just the way it falls?

I had a read and apparently it's not a tremendous site due to being open to the road and having no showers but I would have expected more people to be on it.

could be because it's tiny!

We're in bleu nord, stayed there in 2003,04,05, and 06. Beasejour last year, but back to bleu this year. It's not that bad! A lot of Danes and Dutch tend to stay there - now they can drink/party!

Mad Friday on your doorstep at Bleu Sud, often wondered how late the noise goes on as personally I'd rather get an early night on the Friday so I can last all night Saturday.

This will be my 4th year. Stayed in Bleu Sud, Bleu Nord, Bleu Sud, and i think we've just got tickets there again.
It's right next to the road which is good as if you get a decent plot you can see some of the banter and action while your at your camp cooking your lunch and drinking beer. Never too far away from the fridge biggrin

You can also get some banter going with Maison Blanc or whoever it is opposite just in the circuit. They've previously had towers their side of the wall to see over and bombard the road with water.

I rated it much more than Bleu Nord when we were there, but have no experience of the others to gauge it against.

The Mad Friday stuff was prevalent my first year, but the Gendarmes have been more present to try and stop it for the last couple of years. I certainly don't think the noise from that would stop you sleeping on the Friday, but as it's right next to the track, sleep is pretty tricky during the race unless you're very drunk.
