It is a pity that stories like these are impossible now that we're at an age where, if you don't get scouted for development program as a baby, you'll be left behind.

Roseanne Mansell, what a class act she is. <br>Married for 50+ years now; insane ambition, inner drive and that solid foundation kept Nigel going.

Many years ago my Dad met Nigel Mansell by chance at a petrol station. He said he was a brilliant person to talk to. He even sat in my Dads Capri.

Senna is widely quoted as saying things along these lines<br><br>“I’m not afraid of anyone […] but every time I see Nigel in the rear-view mirror I get worried—I never know what he might invent…” <br><br>“Nigel is the only driver who, when he’s attacking from behind, you see him in both mirrors.” <br><br>“If Mansell is on form and has the right car, it’s impossible to try to keep him behind. He will overtake you, even over the top of your head, but he will overtake you.”

I got mercilessly bullied in high school for having "MANSELL" on the back of my jacket during the Canon Williams Honda era.

My dad was a <b>HUGE</b> Mansell fan when we were growing up and I was a little too young to understand why. I remember him crying in the living room when Mansell came back and finally won it. <br><br>Years later I understand why, this is why drivers like Mansell, Hamilton, Alonso etc are so loved, they aren't there by the grace of god, they are there because they and their loved ones sacrificed everything, they are there because they took the risks other people were too scared to take. Many many things ruin F1, people like Nigel make it.<br><br>He's one of our own, <br>He's one of our own, <br>Nigel Mansell, he's one of our own.
