There has not been any race car driver who has been linked to using performance enhancement drugs, all other sports have athletes linked to the use of such.
Expensive? in racing what you wear out is your race vehicle, it can be replaced. In other ball sports what you wear out is the human body it is irreplaceable and cannot be bought, therefore a lot more expensive in the long term.
Racing builds character and honesty. In racing if you do something against the rules you are disqualified, no second chances. In basketball fouls are illegal but you are allowed to do it six times, hence it teaches our kids that if something is not allowed because it is bad, it is still ok to do it because you can cheat six times. The philippines being a basketball crazy nation has the most election cheaters, coincidence?
Therefore motor racing is safer, cheaper and a better character building sport as compared to other sports.
