Why you do all the racing drivers live here I mean all the waiters are rude to in restaurants no one ever says thank you if you hold the door open for them you have to live in a tower block things cost an absolute fortune well I’ll tell

You why if you live here for six months and a day in each year you don’t pay any tax but you try getting them to admit that and it’s a dark day for truth and justice it’s an ideal location for traveling around the European circuits

No David that’s not it I just think that every time in between the races I have like a little holiday there’s no prize before going to the next one I go back to the knockout I came here for the climate and then for the central part of

Europe no Cushi dance listen it’s in a very good climate the weather is very good most of the time is beautiful sunshine it’s war look guys if you want warm what’s the matter with somewhere like legions but here is a better social life you can enjoy yourself much more

Than in Egypt and it’s also very central because from here you can go anywhere in Europe within an hour an hour and a half so you come from slowly Airy so it’s a for travelling meets also very very good oh come on guys next thing you got to tell me you live

Here is East a face having so good weather you can also have a good training for fitness and because for the racing driver is very important also to to train to have to be fit in the car it’s very nice here you have nice buildings you have my sports you have a

Lot of friends because everybody is living here he’s beautiful and I don’t have much closer to theory on afford esting mm-hm so that’s that’s really a great place to be yeah and now they’re honest answer tax thank you get hot of course the other reason for living here is that

Once a year you don’t have to commute to work because builders bring the Grand Prix circus to your door here they’re covering the entrance to an underground carpark so the transporters can park somewhere here they’re building stands which some spectators don’t need because they’ve paid 18 thousand pounds for a weekend in

Rome 801 at the Hotel de Perry Churchill’s favorite spot you get a marvelous view of Monaco to let Li Palace up there on the hill the harbour with all the big boats could even see the track

  1. Taxes in the West used to be maximum of 5%. To fund World War One, governments put taxes up, and never put them down again. Nwow combined taxes average around 60% in western Europe. That is THEFT. Russian serfs had to give away less of their labour than the modern European.

  2. tbh those would all be valid reasons for them to pick a place to live. The tax deal is probably the first thing that brings them there, but if that's where all the F1 racers are living then that's where other F1 racers are going to want to live

  3. I don't think that this is well know by europeans F1 fans, so I decided to share it: David Coulthard is wearing a Senninha's shirt in this video, an absolute icon for any brazilian kid born in the 80's and 90's. I had a lot of products featuring Senninha in my childhood: tennis, notebooks, glasses, watches, shirts. They weren't expensive and all the money went to the Instituto Ayrton Senna, runned by his sister, to fund education for young poor children. This is partly why Senna is workshipped as a demigod in Brasil
