Title: Le Mans Press Pass
Post by: Archbish on April 01, 2010, 08:44:07 AM
So I\'ve managed to get press accreditation with Le Mans organisers on their website, and frankly it all seems a little too easy...

Are there any gotcha\'s or does anyone have a press pass for motoring events that could give me some guidance on this???

(Of course, the little 1st gen needs to get me down there first...)

Cheers

OJ

No idea, but I\'m interested to hear how you got it and what benefits it\'ll give you ;) (I\'m going to the Classic this year)

well, I went here and applied for accreditation - http://presse.lemans.org

I\'m a bit sceptical it\'ll work, but hell, worth a try!!  We could find ourselves in the pitlane during the race if it does work...!!

Well I\'ll give it a go and see what happens at the classic.  Got my SLR so shouldn\'t look too out of place :P

Morning. Just wondering how you got along? How did it work? What areas could you get to? Did you need to have insurance? Fireproof suit for pitlane? Too many questions. What eqipment did you use? Get any good shots? Thanks Stuart (first post!)
