I bet there are some hotels in Sochi that are none too happy these days.

Been to Monaco, even watched part of the race from the pit wall, the speed is nuts and TV is no good at showing how fast the cars are
Also done Monza twice, watched a Fri. practice from the Paddock Club over looking the pits and also watched the 2008 race from the stands. Lots of Polish fans there too so the place erupted when Vettel won in the Torro Rosso and Kubica was 3rd
I'd easily chose Monza over Monaco as a race to go to as the the atmosphere with the tifosi makes it an amazing experience, especially if Ferrari are doing well
In comparison Monaco is a bit sterile and not a lot to do there, unless you're watching from your super yacht surrounded by hot super models and you're invted to all the best cocktail parties
Another plus for Monza is it's an easy train ride from Milan which has Linate an international airport, Lake Como is an easy drive, so you can tack on a mountains/lakes excursion to go with your Euro city break
Italian food is the best too!
Jim, lowyder993s has been to Monza so hopefully he'll see this and share his experience
