    Good. I’m my opinion Le Mans is greater than F1. More cars, more variety, more drivers, better racing, amazing track, tell Motorsport.

    If I was a racing driver of any type I’d definitely aim to always race Le Mans every year. Also Mille Miglia if it’s still going.

    F1 drivers of the distant past often raced in many outside races. It was common.

      Well the number of races and hence the demands f1 places on drivers was also lower. With 24 races being planned, I can’t see much opportunities for drivers to race in other series even if they want to.

        Definitely agree. There isn’t much time for that now, but as drivers Le Mans must be a dream for them.
