What Does He Know?

I'm always a bit suspect when race promoters dismiss safety concerns.   Apparently, F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone is pooh-poohing concerns that a night race on a street course could be dangerous.
"There's another street track we've been racing on for quite a few years that's in the south of France - Monaco I think it's called!" said the 76-year-old.  "We've had no trouble there, so I don't see why we should have any trouble at these other street circuits. "But of course there won't be a race unless it is safe."
Of course he would say that!
