Loved Mansell. Very unlucky to not be a multi WDC himself. Easily a match for Senna. Cars and rules were totally different back then. One of the greats of F1 for me and a great era of F1.
I couldn't agree more! I never got to see Gilles racing while he was still alive, only on video... But I had the privilege of watching Mansell, and I really miss seeing him race... What a performer!
Gilles was fantastic starter as well. Anyways... Gilles didn't swerve, and/or deliberately hold other drivers up. As quoted in an article - that Nigel Roebuck once used as a title in Motorsports magazine (2012??) - _"Any Idiot Can Block"_ (Gilles Villeneuve; after Jarama 1981 when asked by a reporter as to why he didn't use "defensive" measures during the GP).
He did, although I wonder had he won in 91 would he have left and won indycar in his first seasonin 93, which I'm my opinion is an even greater achievement
Should have won in 86 and would have won in 87. He was still carrying a neck injury from Formula Ford days and that Suzuka smash was so much worse as a result. Rotten luck
Great vid. I grew up watching mansell and red five. He had balls. His overtake on berger at mexico around the outside of the peraltada is bruned on my brain!!
1:18 The best overtake ever over Senna. It's funny how he looked to his left and saw Mansell there, I wonder what went through his mind; (no man you again! give me a break Mansell) I'm Brazilian and really admire the boldness of both racers. R.I.P. Senna.
I remember reading an article with Derek Warwick just after Nigel Mansell became World champion in 1992 and he stated that if Prost or Senna had been in the same car as him that year he believed Mansell still would have been champ. I think Nige would have given Senna a run for his money if they shared the same car. Also Nigel was a bit older than Senna he was almost 40 when he became champion. And I don't think Nigel gets enough credit for his efforts in the 1991 season he was so far behind Senna at the beginning of the season and he still managed to make it a competitive season, The Williams may have been the faster car but the McLaren was the most reliable car.
Nigel Mansell was the absolute best. What he lacked in natural talent (Senna) he made up for in pure passion, guts and a blood red desire to win. The absolute Bulldog of F1 for over many a decade. No one came close when 'Red Five' was 'on one'. I miss those Sundays and it's great to see it all kept alive here on the 'Tube' As Mr. Walker would say...'Fan-tastic!'
Le pilote culte. Dans un grand jour Mansell était intouchable. Très rapide dans toutes les conditions. Des boulettes mémorables qui ajoute à sa légende. La perte du titre 1986 à été une vraie plaie pour moi.
Mansell on the charge. No sight like it in racing, you can see the car having its neck rung, and the way he would get so close before pouncing like some wild animal 🦁 never gets boring.
9:09 That is why they have to removed the "Peraltada" corner from the new layout at the "Hermanos Rodriguez" racetrack, it was pretty unsafe, even today, there is still a couple of grooves all across the outside of that banked corner from Nigel Mansell dragging his brass balls from when he passed Berger...
Monaco '92 - Nigel was leading by half-a-minute before the pitstop with half-a-dozen laps to go. Those final few laps were the stuff of legend. As Mansell said in the post-race interview 'His (Ayrton's) car was just too wide...'
@ChannelMansell Certainly did. In fact, I used to prefer it if Mansell had dropped places for whatever reason rather than be out in front, because you just knew that something unbelievable was gonna happen. I lost interest after Damon Hill won the title as i could see the way F1 was heading......Hopefully it will regain it's appeal some day.
In the less than a inch overtake over senna was just possible cause they are two awesome pilots. I miss this F1, where we had a lot of great racers and not only some guys depending on the team.
@SuperPrivate2011 Mansell without a doubt, Hamilton is good but Mansell raced in an era where the driver made more of a difference rather than the better car. Plus he is still the only person to have been F1 and Indie car champion at the same time.
People go on about Senna, Prost etc.. but Mansell was one of the, if not the , most exciting F1 drivers ever. I remember him coming from nowhere and racing through the field on many a race. Maybe it's because he come from the Midlands. Not as exotic as Brazil perhaps. I don't care , he was equally as exciting as Prost and Senna.
Nige has always been up there with Schumi with being able to take a lesser car and wring its neck to best of their own driving ability long before they had the Constructors Champ's chassis at their disposal. Piss off Senna & Prost ...
Great vid!!! does any what that white cloud like thing that forms on the two edges of the rear wing under braking? 1:10.. i saw it recently on the two mclarens of Jenson and Lewis... curious to know why that happens
Condensation between high and low pressures from the wings. When one saw this, one KNEW the aerodynamic set-up was right. Only seen in humid or damp conditions though.
Nigel Mansell was an absolute ass off track yet probably deserved more than one world championship. It was no surprise really that Piquet could play head games with him..
I strongly agree. Though I'm brazilian and reput Senna as the greatest of all, Nigell is my favorite for his agressiveness, determination, highspiritedness and for never giving up, not to mention his superb skills. No doubt one of the greatest of all times. Unfortunately, I alsso agre thet this shitty music spoils the video. I know some think it is great. Anyway , I think there are lots of music sites for thhe fans of that kind of muzak and it has nothing to do with the stuff we look for here.
@james95morrisonUK But the difference in my opinion is that Kimi might give 100% in one race an then the next he might give 70 - 80 %. But mansell gave 110% everytime he got into a racing car.
Hamilton is definetly an old school racer! all the moves drivers pulled to try and defend against mansell are now illegal and he would have trouble today due to the blue flag. Mansell a true master of racing and Hamilton has the misfortune of too many rules and regs! A good video, just a shame about the music over the sound of the cars and murray walker!
Love the video! Love the commentary! But why is it polluted with a crappy music soundtrack? The only music should be the sound of the engines, nothing more, nothing less.
Under the title of "proctecting the inside is futile"......... how can they leave out the pass of Berger at Mexico in 1990 ?? By far the best Nige move on the outside.
@rowlocks99 What, when he was too fat to fit in the Macca? Haha I thought it was a good way to exit, better that than how Schumi's going about it right now...
Great video. Great narration. All destroyed by an insipid soundtrack. ChannelMansell, it's do-over time. Put this together without the Night At The Roxbury pollution. Seriously.
Loved Mansell. Very unlucky to not be a multi WDC himself. Easily a match for Senna. Cars and rules were totally different back then. One of the greats of F1 for me and a great era of F1.
My sentiments exactly but the pushback you get when you say it is huge
After the LEGENDARY GILLES the next best thing to watch,pure pleasure , the lionheart!
I couldn't agree more! I never got to see Gilles racing while he was still alive, only on video... But I had the privilege of watching Mansell, and I really miss seeing him race... What a performer!
@@johnmano1439 yees!!! No hesitation no politics, pure racer
Gilles was fantastic starter as well. Anyways...
Gilles didn't swerve, and/or deliberately hold other drivers up.

Legendary,one of the best drivers of all time !
@TimBrewin I'm 39 years old and I credit Mansell with my current F1 obsession! The man was incredible to watch. A real gladiator on the track!
I absolutely loved the way he drived. The great lion!
My heart sinks when I hear James Hunt commentating, what a great chap he was.
This was the era of F1 at its peak,proper racing🤗
he deserved more than just one title :(
I'd said four. without the doubt.
He did, although I wonder had he won in 91 would he have left and won indycar in his first seasonin 93, which I'm my opinion is an even greater achievement
Should have won in 86 and would have won in 87. He was still carrying a neck injury from Formula Ford days and that Suzuka smash was so much worse as a result. Rotten luck

Mine too
1:18 The best overtake ever over Senna.
It's funny how he looked to his left and saw
Mansell there, I wonder what went through
his mind; (no man you again! give me a
break Mansell)
I'm Brazilian and really admire the boldness
of both racers.
R.I.P. Senna.
Yes. I was a Mansell fan and I never liked Senna.
But. There was no way Mansell could compete sith Senna if put in the same car. Not a chance.
I remember reading an article with Derek Warwick just after Nigel Mansell became World champion in 1992 and he stated that if Prost or Senna had been in the same car as him that year he believed Mansell still would have been champ. I think Nige would have given Senna a run for his money if they shared the same car. Also Nigel was a bit older than Senna he was almost 40 when he became champion. And I don't think Nigel gets enough credit for his efforts in the 1991 season he was so far behind Senna at the beginning of the season and he still managed to make it a competitive season, The Williams may have been the faster car but the McLaren was the most reliable car.
This moment is 😗👌
As a Senna fan I must admit those 'faking' moves were awesome.
When his car worked, he was unstoppable!
Yes men.
Nigel Mansell was the absolute best. What he lacked in natural talent (Senna) he made up for in pure passion, guts and a blood red desire to win. The absolute Bulldog of F1 for over many a decade. No one came close when 'Red Five' was 'on one'. I miss those Sundays and it's great to see it all kept alive here on the 'Tube'
As Mr. Walker would say...'Fan-tastic!'
Oh he had natural talent..in buckets!
I took would never miss the chance to witness the greatness of the man ,he was awesome.
Le pilote culte.
Dans un grand jour Mansell était intouchable.
Très rapide dans toutes les conditions.
Des boulettes mémorables qui ajoute à sa légende.
La perte du titre 1986 à été une vraie plaie pour moi.
The 'dummy' is a magic move...
Mansell on the charge. No sight like it in racing, you can see the car having its neck rung, and the way he would get so close before pouncing like some wild animal 🦁 never gets boring.
Mansell es leyenda, el leon!!!!
10 min of pleasure, really ! Excellent vid !!
That was brilliant. Nice to see the great man in action again. Thanks.
He was a true british bulldog, a total fighter to the end, one of the very best, right up there with Senna.
06:04 Wheels spinning up hill whilst doing a back marker and taking the lead! Fresh moves
A great tribute to one of the best. Thanks.
mansell, hill and senna. my first memories of f1
9:09 That is why they have to removed the "Peraltada" corner from the new layout at the "Hermanos Rodriguez" racetrack, it was pretty unsafe, even today, there is still a couple of grooves all across the outside of that banked corner from Nigel Mansell dragging his brass balls from when he passed Berger...
My favourite race was Monaco where Mansell was chasing Senna. Senna won but Mansell just hounded him for the entire race. It was incredibly exciting!
Monaco '92 - Nigel was leading by half-a-minute before the pitstop with half-a-dozen laps to go. Those final few laps were the stuff of legend. As Mansell said in the post-race interview 'His (Ayrton's) car was just too wide...'
He was the best with the worst luck, but when 'RED 5' was alive there was no stopping the man, no one on earth could match Mansell on a charge!!
THE MAN, THE F1 DRIVER; THE HERO.
NIGEL ERNEST JAMES MANSELL THE LION OF F1 when F1 was R-E-A-L !!
Red 5 Still Alive! Oh yeah!
Great stuff. What a legend Our Nige will always be!
@ChannelMansell Certainly did. In fact, I used to prefer it if Mansell had dropped places for whatever reason rather than be out in front, because you just knew that something unbelievable was gonna happen. I lost interest after Damon Hill won the title as i could see the way F1 was heading......Hopefully it will regain it's appeal some day.
miss this kind of racing talent in f1 now, he was amazing, matched and beat Senna and Prost, a great.
In the less than a inch overtake over senna was just possible cause they are two awesome pilots. I miss this F1, where we had a lot of great racers and not only some guys depending on the team.
Also, which says much about both - absolute trust. They both knew that neither would pull a 'dirty trick' on the other.
@SuperPrivate2011 Mansell without a doubt, Hamilton is good but Mansell raced in an era where the driver made more of a difference rather than the better car. Plus he is still the only person to have been F1 and Indie car champion at the same time.
Nige was one of my favs
pure genius.
So awesome, i fucking LOVE this!
People go on about Senna, Prost etc.. but Mansell was one of the, if not the , most exciting F1 drivers ever. I remember him coming from nowhere and racing through the field on many a race. Maybe it's because he come from the Midlands. Not as exotic as Brazil perhaps. I don't care , he was equally as exciting as Prost and Senna.
best thing is, after he overtakes his car shits fire on the drivers who got owned!
8:13 says it all
Awesome.
Just fkn awesome
The best racer ever, he would have been out of sight if he'd had reliable cars....
Mansell - A driver, the likes of which the world has never seen the likes of which
mansell finish on the podium on a horse and cart.
mansell is an all time great
Good Video. Nigel Mansell the most underated driver ever, but my hero. The only person that passed Ayrton Senna regularly.
Nige has always been up there with Schumi with being able to take a lesser car and wring its neck to best of their own driving ability long before they had the Constructors Champ's chassis at their disposal. Piss off Senna & Prost ...
Greatest of all time
the best..........
Best F1 driver to win only one championship?
Awesome video!. F1 was so much better back then, they're just not that aggresive anymore. Daredevil of the 80's everyones F1 hero!.
Enter max verstappen
Masterpiece: 7.25 , at Estoril
Still the best!
The Lion ......
Hamilton: watch this!
Hamilton couldn’t hold Mansell jockstrap. When drivers were men.
Fantastic video compilation but why the unnecessary music over the top?!!
@TimBrewin That's right. I'd forgot about that part. Thanks Tim.
Great vid!!! does any what that white cloud like thing that forms on the two edges of the rear wing under braking? 1:10.. i saw it recently on the two mclarens of Jenson and Lewis... curious to know why that happens
Condensation between high and low pressures from the wings. When one saw this, one KNEW the aerodynamic set-up was right. Only seen in humid or damp conditions though.
Whats the second song??? ... Fits those moves he pulls :D .... Nice tribute vid
With late Gilles Villeneuve , the most spectacular driver in Formula 1.
@baldymer I agree, ayrton consider all powerful.
Nigel Mansell was an absolute ass off track yet probably deserved more than one world championship. It was no surprise really that Piquet could play head games with him..
🤩
@ 6:48 (1989 F1 Hungarian Grand Prix)
- ......having failed, for the 10th time, to score one CHAMPIONSHIP POINT; MANSELL GOES THOROUGH!!!! 😎😎😎😎😎
name of song???
@immortalperser Thanks :)
❤️💓
@unclenewy
How I wish he was still racing! He so deserved a better finale
@immortalperser Thanks
Great great rival for senna ....
"the dummy" ahaha wow
@ChannelMansell 1st and 2nd soundtrack names please :3
But mansell gave 110% everytime, because thats the way the man was.
mansell piquet prost ans senna great moments best era
Mansell was the best second but one, senna
Awesome compilation! Any chance you could upload it again however, WITHOUT the annoying music! Too loud!
I strongly agree. Though I'm brazilian and reput Senna as the greatest of all, Nigell is my favorite for his agressiveness, determination, highspiritedness and for never giving up, not to mention his superb skills. No doubt one of the greatest of all times.
Unfortunately, I alsso agre thet this shitty music spoils the video.
I know some think it is great. Anyway , I think there are lots of music sites for thhe fans of that kind of muzak and it has nothing to do with the stuff we look for here.
Back in the days when F1 was racing 😞
@james95morrisonUK But the difference in my opinion is that Kimi might give 100% in one race an then the next he might give 70 - 80 %. But mansell gave 110% everytime he got into a racing car.
What is the overtake at 9:47 :) ?
Piloti cosi non si possono scordare
Hamilton is definetly an old school racer! all the moves drivers pulled to try and defend against mansell are now illegal and he would have trouble today due to the blue flag. Mansell a true master of racing and Hamilton has the misfortune of too many rules and regs!
A good video, just a shame about the music over the sound of the cars and murray walker!
Love the video! Love the commentary! But why is it polluted with a crappy music soundtrack? The only music should be the sound of the engines, nothing more, nothing less.
El Bigote Cosmico!
Nelson Piquet disliked this video :)
I heard Nigel Mansell is cool guy.... He overtakes teh drivers and doesnt afraid of anything...
can somebody tell me the name of the first song?
I would like to know the both musics
He is the most entertaining driver, may not be as cool headed like Prost or Senna, but you know he puts 200% into it.
@baldymer are you trying to say that Senna and Prost weren't great drivers?
Il re del sorpasso
Long live Il Leone
Quite simply.. the best F1 driver that has ever lived (Senna lovies feel free to chirp but facts are facts)...
Mansell and Hamilton are the two most exciting overtakers ever!! I'd love to see them both at it
Under the title of "proctecting the inside is futile"......... how can they leave out the pass of Berger at Mexico in 1990 ??
By far the best Nige move on the outside.
EARRAPE AAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MINDEN IDŐK EGYIK LEGNAGYOBB VERSENYZője
They don't make F1 drivers like this anymore!
I am not mansell fan , but I think that he was a heavyweight of Formula 1 :) .....
@rowlocks99 What, when he was too fat to fit in the Macca? Haha I thought it was a good way to exit, better that than how Schumi's going about it right now...
Great video. Great narration. All destroyed by an insipid soundtrack. ChannelMansell, it's do-over time. Put this together without the Night At The Roxbury pollution. Seriously.
Mansell not the greatest but the best
