Marshals saftey and needs

[Razor]

A few weeks back on the Aussie motorsport show, RPM, V8 Supercar driver Russell Ingall had a rant about Marshals needs and saftey. I agree with him, he said that Marshals that the people that are in charge of motorsport groups are neglecting Marshals, their personal and saftey needs. For example, a few years back in the 1st round in the F1, (Melbourne, Australia) there was a big crash and a peice of metal was flung at a marshal, killing him instantly. Should the marshals have to stand on those small cement blocks that offer only a small amount of protection. Also, he said that the marshals almost bust the butts off to get to the races on time, they have to pay for their own transportation and accomodation, and what people pay them is about thesame as the price of chicken feed. Does any marshals agree about what I said or disagree? I think that the marshals should get a fatter pay check, more respect and have more saftey houses on race day.
