The Automobile Club de l’Ouest indeed proposes you a truly unique guided visit, since the doors of the circuit and its installations will be open to you for around 1h 45, during which time, accompanied by a knowledgeable guide, you will have detailed explanations of each site you visit.
Much more than a simple discovery, it is above all a journey deep into the heart of legendary places which are totally unknown to the general public, such as the Race Control building, from where both the race itself and track security are managed, the room reserved for the winners before they climb on to the podium, and the huge press room (350 metres long, 450 work desks), where journalists from all over the world get together during the “24 Heures du Mans”.
The visit starts at the main entrance of the circuit (Luigi Chinetti square), and your bus will drive you along the famous Straight Line of the Hunaudières (the ‘Mulsanne Straight’) of the big circuit of the “24 Heures du Mans”.You will then come into the circuit enclosure, passing through the paddock, the village and the reception areas, to finish your visit, as is only natural, with a stop at the “24 Heures du Mans” official shop, situated at the entrance of the “24 Heures-Circuit du Mans” museum.
