If the better off of our organisers slip back into the sort of unthinking short-termism we had in the past, we could soon see the marshalling days slip back again.

And anyway, what happened to consideration and respect for motor sport's volunteer marshals?

It looks like were going off topic a bit, but I just want to say, with the price of petrol being what it is, I for one will not be doing as much marshaling this year as I have done in previous years.
