$4,000 to sit on a yacht and watch the race:

Apparently, that includes champagne and brunch.  A deal!  

I'd love to go to the Monaco Grand Prix just to be there.  Not on race day, but on the days prior to the race.  Watch them practice, etc.  Someone told me you can walk around in the pits on one of the days prior to the race, see the cars up close, etc.  I understand that's one of the worst races for actually seeing the race.    I've looked at tickets for the Monaco Grand Prix, and for a decent seat where you can actually see something, it is really expensive.  

I used to watch that thing on ABC Wide World of Sports.  So cool with the cars racing through the tunnel, and around the streets.  That was back when Jackie Stewart was driving.  

It seems like the US Grand Prix would have much much better viewing, since it's a track that was built for racing, and for fans in grandstands.  Definitely not as cool as the Monaco Grand Prix, though.
