They are F1 drivers not IRL Indycar drivers !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tilke dromes have acres of run off, ovals do not. F1 do not reach 400 clicks, IRL Indycars (also known as "Crapwagons" by Champcar supporters) do.
$1 m a week does seem VERY excessive, but it's what the markets wants to pay, on the other hand they could have signed Kubica for $200,000 a year back in Jan 2006 and you never know what he could do with a Ferrari... but they have made their choice in a "top" driver, it's their funds after all.
