      @@billB101 Historic? The Formula has changed. The cars have changed. Old circuits have been upgraded, re profiled or dropped entirely to move along with the sport. All except Monaco. Rouen Les Essarts, the original Monza, Zandvoort, Reims-Gueux, Watkins Glen. All far more “historic” than Monaco. But dropped or significantly altered generally due of the safety concerns associated with tight circuits with no run off zones. None of which apparently applies to Monaco. But why would it apply when there are Billionaires to cater to. And what did we see on Sunday? Yup, a first lap crash that took three cars out of the race and set the entire race back by what 45 minutes? Oh and not a single overtake until lap 51, with there only being four in total throughout the entire race and none of these happening within the top 10 positions.

Also if you have 120 flats it is already paying for itself plus villas plus centa comercial office buildings. And a lot of villas have been sold to Russians where they had to pay a deposit of at least 40% and now after sanctions they cannot complete the deal and their flats are being re-sold. Also for sure the City will make money from the investment.

    It's important to remember that many, but not all property owners in Monaco don't live there year round. Monaco is a wonderful city that allows Europeans to leave their country, obtain citizenship (with investment) and live nearly tax free. So to many, an obstructed view of the sea at your part time residence isn't as much of a factor when you're keeping all of the money you make.

    The size comparison at 1min01 is very misleading, you overlapped Monaco (which is around 3km in length) onto an area of Paris between l'Ile de la cité and Place du Chatelet which is around 200 meters. So Monaco on that scale would need to be 15 times larger than what is represented here. It would stretch across almost 1/3 of the size of Paris (which, granted, is still pretty small for a state, but nowhere near the 200 m you showed on the map which literally take 2 minutes to walk across the bridge over the Seine river)

    Part of Monaco’s charm was the fact that so much opulent majestic buildings are crammed into a tiny kingdom. Gone are the Princess Grace Kelly years of style and sophistication. It’s all plastic yachts and modern concrete architecture these days. The new developments won’t age well. It is as if we can’t build beautiful buildings anymore. If Monaco keeps expanding it will loose the very thing that makes it special. Its size.

      Tout est une question d’argent …
      La France pourrait profiter de leur céder un peu de territoire en réclamant, en plus du prix de vente du terrain, un léger pourcentage en taxes foncières.
      Monaco attire les gens riches de partout dans le monde, par conséquent, ces nouveaux territoires annexés à la Principauté généreraient probablement de plus grandes entrées d’argent que s’ils restaient territoires français.
      Si j’étais du côté français, je ne fermerais pas complètement la porte à leur vendre du territoire!
