    Found this very cool overhead shot from Monaco on the web with no credit given to the photographer unfortunately. It appears to be from the first lap in 2007 given the order of cars and I thought the view was worth sharing. Before you ask, I don't have the image any larger.

    You can buy an apartment there for 100,000 Euros per square metre so yes it is worth a lot :)

    In that building? If you HAVE to buy something in Monaco (apart from a mouring slip with near swimming pool) that's a very nice place to do so.

    He's talking about a place to park your yacht down in the harbor. I believe the word he intended was mooring.

    Also, there is a section of the Monaco track between Tabac and Rascasse that is referred to as the Swimming Pool section. See it here:
