That's my point as well! I don't marshal to get paid. I am ANNOYED that when I see Monaco marshals suited and booted in top line kit, and also many other GP's, UK marshals get such a raw deal.
I worked NASCAR several years ago, and whilst not getting 'paid', we did get handfulls of 'Speedway dollars' (monopoly type money for refreshments in the circuit catering places) and a $150 gift certificate for the souvenir shops.
