The three others tribunes, WIMILLE (550 seats), BENOIST (550 seats), and SOMMER (1332 seats) will be pulled down as they are too old for the security of the steel struture and the comfort of the spectators. <BR> <BR> Temporary tribunes will be built for the 2001 race. 5100 seats are expected in these temporary structures.<BR> <BR> The aim is to build new tribunes, this is a part of a wider plan for the public over the next two years.<BR> </FONT></TD></TR> </TABLE><BR> </CENTER> <BR><CENTER><font size="1" color="#808080" face="Tahoma">Copyright ©2000-©2023 TotalMotorSport</font></CENTER> </td> </tr> </table> </body>
