Route to Mulsanne

[spikep]

Hi all, looking to drive out from Beausejour to Mulsanne corner to watch the night practice on the Wednesday. Can someone draw me the route on a map and mark the car parking area please.
Thanks in advance.

I think this is the route. This is from memory and on the assumption the detours are still as the were. The yellow blob is approximately where the Mulsanne Corner parking is. You then walk along the track side all the way to Mulsanne Corner.

Come out of Beausjour and under the circuit to the roundabout, straight over towards Arnage town and then follow red line.

in 20+ years of visiting i've never made it to Mulsanne ... i'll have a foldy bike this year ... easy enough ride out i guess maybe for sunday morning ... worth the trip?

Definitely worth the ride to Arnage or Mulsanne. Sunday morning for us

I tend to do a lap of the circuit on Saturday using the shuttle to get to Mulsanne and then to Arnage/Indiapolis. A few beers on the way around and back at the campsite for an evening bbq. I have been there in the early hours too and it’s quite stunning as the sun comes up.

After 16 visits we decided to go to Mulsanne, we also bring folding bikes. In my opion it is a bit to much for a folding bike, so we go to Mulsanne by car during a practise session or qually. It is great viewing, lots to see, like an awsome highspeed breakzone en a long accelaration towards arnage. Last year they aded a raised ambankmend for better viewing.

Last few years we bike to Arnage on the sunday, great place to watch the finish, less bussy.

Thanks! yep, done Arnage many times and have alsways walked up there in the past ... bit of a treck but well worth it.

Unless I was unlucky, the police were only letting push bikes down the road to Mulsanne (the first left on the map above at Arnage). Did anyone manager to get down there? I was on a tiny motorcycle and they still wouldn't let me down there. Maybe my timing was off

I've found the route on www.le-mans-guide.co.uk . . . . tricky, but worth it.

I couldn't get to arnage last year, well in a car anyway. Police had closed the road and didn't fancy the walk.

Assume you can still walk their though, plan this year is to utilise the bus system especially to mulsanne corner where I've never been.

If you can, get the Bus from the Tram stop side of the track to Mulsanne. It tends to be a bit quieter from my experience.

Drove from Panorama to Arnage free car park last year about 1am during race. Fairly easy and well signed and 5 mins or so from gratuit car park

Busy there but not too bad and lots of different views there from Indy fast approach, bends and slow corners. Big screen there too and good views from top of banking - lots of chairs there but can see over easily if standing at back

Havn't done Mulsanne since Classic a fair few years ago and it was great for watching/hearing acceleration after corner but less variety
