Bridge over troubled motors

My fellow blipper, davidd, posted a photo of the iconic Dunlop Bridge at the Le Mans circuit yesterday. He walked under the bridge, which is possible on the Friday pit walk day. Today is race day and I have never seen it so packed. This is a photo of people queuing to walk over the Dunlop Bridge to get to the inner area of the circuit.The extra photo is of spectators standing on a bank overlooking the track as it dips down from under the bridge.The reference to "troubled motors" (with apologies to Paul Simon) reflects the fact that we've had a number of shunts and retirements from the race already in the opening three hours. It's a long circuit and rain has been falling on part of it and  causing havoc.
