I did not say the millionaires are hypocrites. Try reading what I wrote. It is the F1 powers that be that are hypocrites. Constantly banging on about improving safety, yet they hold a race at Monaco. Given the lack of over taking opportunities it is only to please a few Monaco residents which tend to be millionaires.
Hehe you got me wrong there, i was just being sarcastic but my point was, plenty of people enjoy the Monaco race, it's one of my top 5 of the year. But i see what you're saying, and i say we should be objective about monaco, ie i'd be interested in seeing an analysis of driver injuries suffered at various tracks since 1994, that would tell us whether there's a case in saying Monaco is significantly more dangerous than other tracks.

For a start I can’t watch the Indy 500 as it is not broadcast on free-to-view in the UK that I know off.
You seriously can’t compare Indianapolis and Monaco in terms of safety. One is a purpose built circuit!
Again i was just being a smart@$$, but I was also hinting at the fact that this purpose built track is more dangerous than Monaco once you consider the package as a whole.
