The Le Mans circuit hosted the traditional press conference for the French Grand Prix yesterday morning, a few days before the start of the French round of the MotoGP World Championship.
The opportunity to salute the commitment of the French Motorcycling Federation and its President Jacques Bolle, to recall the importance of collaborative work with the Automobile Club de l'Ouest in the presence of its President Pierre Fillon and to discuss the investment of the communities, City of Le Mans, Sarthe Departmental Council and Pays de la Loire Regional Council which contribute to the smooth running of this event.
This press conference was then the opportunity to Claude Michy, promoter of the event, to recall everything that the organization of the French Grand Prix puts in place to welcome spectators in the best conditions:
Free highways for bikers, Guarded parking, Helmet storage, Walkman and official program distributed free of charge, AMV Fan Zone, Meeting with drivers, Mechanical show, concerts, etc. and more than €30 in prizes to be won this year.
Live intervention by Johann Zarco:
Finally, this press conference ended with the French pilot's video conference intervention Johann zarco. In full preparation before arriving at “his” Grand Prix, Johann Zarco was able to speak about his excellent start to the season (currently 2nd in the World Championship behind Marc Marquez), his relationship with the Le Mans circuit and the fact that his Yamaha lends itself very well to this type of circuit, and on his desire to achieve his first victory in MotoGP this weekend at Le Mans.
Our cell phone was lying around there...
