W bosons are produced at LHC from a forward-backward symmetric initial state. Their decay to a charged lepton and a neutrino has a strong spin analysing power. The combination of these effects results in characteristic distributions of the pseudorapidity of the leptons decaying from W+ and W- of different helicity. This observation may open the possibility to measure precisely the W+ and W- rapidity distributions for the two transverse polarisation states of W bosons produced at small transverse momentum.
