Can you not get behind the esses? Or are the usual spectator bits not open on trackdays?

(I've only been there to watch le mans series last year)

I've been on the infield on trackdays there. You can access it via a tunnel between the pit garages and the hospitality suites.

I'll be there on my SV, the only one on track too I think. In the fast group

Gonna get passed a few times I think.

Looking at the weather though, I think I'd be better off on an supermoto with spiked tyres...
