Mansell is my hero. The reason why I follow F1. His achievements against arguably the best ever Senna were legendary

Indeed and after sennas death in imola he then made a comeback to f1 where he shared the second Williams seat with David Coulthard and he went on to win the f1 season finale At Australia which was the race where Schumacher won his first of 7 f1 titles

Best years of F1 are 1990 until 2010. I can't watch it now because it's not what it was. Same for Rallying, Superbikes and all motorsport. Sad really but it was good stuff for a few years. Only the TT is as good as it used to be.

Wow that brings it all back. I went to see this race. It was an incredible atmosphere, almost like a mini British GP. Probably 90% there to see Nige!

It's an absolutely genius way to get some interest back into the final races of a settled season, would be great to see the various racing bodies get together to let this sort of thing happen more easily.

Nigel's fitness really was poor by this point, he was out of breath controlling the car before the impact. No wonder he could barely fit into the F1 cars in 1994 & 1995 I was there when he crashed..... great memories!

I think he just was pushing the car way over the limit. Mansell was always physical with cars. It was a combination of correcting the car like a single seater and taking far to many liberties.

I would tend to agree on his lack of fitness - when it comes to Touring Cars, which are waaaaay more physically demanding to drive than F1 or Indycars. Never one of my favorites, but I can respect his record and will to win. If only he hadn't whinged so much...
