Depends which crossing you make , the tunnel works out the best deal ( we use Tesco vouchers to pay for it ).Otherwise about £140 ish.

But it is a longer drive for most so more fuel.

Diesel is much cheaper in France , petrol about the same . £25 diesel each way from Calais to LeMans.

If you use motorway on the French side ( about 30 Euros in Tolls ) it is easy to do the distance in a day so you don't have to worry about an overnight stop. Again , depends how far you have gone on the UK side.

Camping Municipal at La Fleche, I think it was about £15 / night.

Basic weekend LeMans ticket was about £85 last time I went. You can pay extra if you want to go around the pits or have a stand seat. I never bother with that as there is so much to see anyway! There are many better viewing areas other than the stands too.

Don't bother with a parking ticket , there is a secret place you can park for free all weekend ( pm me ! ).

Other than that , food a drink , extra fuel for blatting around ! The roads around that area are great ! Drive the circuit if you are there earlier in the week , most of it is public road !


Good luck , hope to see you there !
