There are several easy ways to get to the circuit from the town centre:
Consult car park and tram costs
By car from Paris, take the A11 motorway towards Le Mans. Given the large number of people attending the event, expect heavy traffic as you approach the circuit. To avoid traffic jams, we recommend using the park-and-ride facilities available at the motorway exits. These parking areas offer frequent shuttle buses that will take you straight to the heart of the action without the inconvenience of traffic.
Car-sharing is also a practical and environmentally-friendly option. It reduces the number of vehicles on the road and allows you to share travel costs. Car-sharing platforms can help you organise your journey with other spectators.
Using these alternatives makes your arrival easier and contributes to a better experience for everyone.
