Is there an alternative to experience the Monaco F1 Race "track"?

I'm planning a trip to the French Riviera in late April 2014.

As a long time Formula1 racing fan, the idea of driving on the same road that the racing drivers do excites me. However, renting a car, parking difficulties, traffic etc do not. With excellent train and bus service, I'm quite happy to take the public transport to visit the various towns/cities from our base in Nice... may even throw in a walk between towns if it is not too strenuous (I'm by no way of the imagination fit, haha).

Am wondering whether there are any options to actually experience a drive on the "race track" without all the accompanying hassle?

Sure. I believe that this tour also covers the track: http://www.drivingexperience.livenup...experience-en/

Or, go to Germany and take a spin on the Nordschleife.

Call a taxi and experience the drive on the "race track" in Monaco as a passenger.

Ask the taxi driver to make the appropriate sounds (wrooooooom wroooom).
