The speeds are comparable these days even with the chicanes but the aero is better so overtaking is a lot tougher.

From what I heard from the Porsche 917 driver Derek Bell, the drivers for that particular race car were cautioned to keep the rpms down below (from what I can recall) 9,000 so the engine would not explode, so there was some restraint needed along that straight. But with later technology with rpm governors, I can see where drivers would keep it floored.

I cannot explain how 50+ years later how watching TV coverage of the Le Mans 24H and the Mulsanne in particular still strikes me until I cry. To see men putting their life on the line in a super advanced racing car that can kill you with 1 false move seems quite absurd and pathetic, but unbelievably brave, glorious and heroic at the same time. 10 years ago I even cancelled a visit to Le Mans as I thought my family would wonder why I would be crying watching my favourite sports car event 😂😂 There is a psychological message or metaphor for life in their somewhere and I have not yet unravelled it.

I agree the chicanes are unnecessary, but it really wasn't that it became too dangerous, the FIA just put in a max straight length into the rules. The cars more or less would settle on a max top speed of probably ~240mph, however to increase speed power has to increase as the cube of the speed, to improve down force and go round corners quicker the power required increases as the square of the speed. So at some point it is better to spend the engine power budget to increase down force and go round corners much quicker and down the straight a little slower. We'd already pretty much got there when they introduced the chicanes, that just pushed it more towards increased corner speeds as you weren't using all your mulsanne power budget for speed! It was a shame as the drivers said that they got to relax a bit and check gauges etc. going down the whole of the Mulsanne straight.

They also see a lot more lateral G due to increasing down force & going faster through corners is now the way to minimise lap time...

In 1986 I drove down The Mulsanne straight and it’s not straight Afterwards I stopped in Mulsanne it’s self for food ...No chicanes then on the straight .........

I really wish they still ran the Mulsanne straight again. The 1950s-1980s were special for the automotive world.

Sorry to double comment, but I had to laugh at the birds chirping in the background - normally that's associated with quiet surroundings!

The sound never leaves you once you’ve been. I first went in 95 and headed the scream from the F1 at full chat on the mulsanne straight albeit with the added chicanes in. Le Mans eclipses all else in motorsport world.

You took the words right out of my mouth! Respect to you sir. Motorsport is getting worse by the minute - less power, boring-looking cars, the diesels, too many rules... you get the picture. One day I will lose interest completely and turn to football or something, lol. Basically, these were some of the best days of racing and it's not something we will get back.

I read somewhere, there's a restaurant towards the end of the Mulsanne straight that you can have a midnight dinner, outdoors (that's being a fan). ;-) They call that the "Doppler Effect". Kewl, this was filmed before the "curves" were added.

I always remember having crepes with Grand Marnier at midnight inside the circuit at this very race!
