    The paper contains numerical studies on Sinai's billiard when the circles come into contact: the rate of collision with the circles, Lyapunov exponent, velocity auto-correlation function with respect to the number of collisions (resp. with respect to time), length of a path between two successive collisions. Some physical and ergodic theoretical explanations are given.
