[@GregzVR]

Nigel Mansell: after finishing third in his very first ever oval race(this one), he then proceeded to dominate _every_ other oval race in 1993: class is real and permanent.

[@jordanimatedstreaming]

and with 100 stitches in his back 1:18:08

[@erikcorredor255]

He didn't "Dominate" anything other than Michigan and Nazareth. And really, the Ford/Cosworth XB was putting out 40-50 more hp than the Chevy; so his win at Michigan was nothing more than the car not detonating. Milwaukee and Loudoun were hard fought battles; no dominating there. Mansell is whiner with little class - it showed in his post race interview.

Fittipaldi was a great driver! If he hadn't joined his brother's F1 team, he may have won many more F1 championships. His late success in AOWR shows that.

[@erikcorredor255]

He was truly an exceptional driver.

[@poorjf]

For all of his accomplishments, I've always felt that Emmo's career is a bit underrated by most. He won those two world championships, had a mid-career decline in the late '70s with his brother's team, took a hiatus, then showed up in North America in his late thirties(!) and proceeded, over the next several years, to become one of the best oval(!) racers on the Indy Car circuit, despite having little to no oval track experience until, again, his late thirties(!). He won those two Indy 500s, but if the breaks had broken a little differently, he was in serious contention to win three...or four...or even five. Dominant in 1990 but felled by tire problems. Clutch problem in '91; without it, that late shootout between Michael and Mears would have been a three-way battle, and Fittipaldi would have had better than a puncher's chance to win it. And '94 was basically in the bag until he made that one mistake, which was exceedingly uncommon for him. So, yeah... You wouldn't expect a guy who hadn't raced on ovals until his late thirties(!) to become dominant in that arena, but he did. And he was way, WAY ahead of his time in terms of fitness and nutrition, which is probably a major reason he was competitive into his late forties.

[@X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X]

@@poorjf have my upvote

[@andronicusmaximus2355]

He realistically could have been a 5 time winner at Indy. 1990 - dominates most of the day. Hot conditions lead to blistering tires on the Penske chassis. Had to make extra pit stops as a result, putting him out of contention. 1991 - gearbox/clutch issues. Entered the pits late while leading. Shredded the gearbox while leaving the pits, putting him out. 1994 - dominated all day. Crashed late trying to lap his teammate. Emmo was always tough at Indy. It’s a shame that his last attempt was a DNQ in 1995 after the team withdrew a speed that would have put him in the field.

**Update on this comment: Mansell was just interviewed June '24 with both his '92 F1 winning Williams and '93 Indy Car title winning Newman-Haas Lola sitting behind him (the IMS museum lent it during their renovation) which was just an awesome sight of a man and the cars that achieved something that will never be duplicated (and Nigel still looks like he's in his mid 50's!) He revealed a couple things about the '93 500: that he felt both the yellow for Lyn St James' dead car right at the top of the pit lane when he was leading with only 15 laps to go was ridiculous (it was) and that both Fittipaldi and Luyendyk jumped him on the restart in a very 'unsporting' way (welcome to Indy Car!) It's a great interview remembering an incredible achievement in auto racing** 2:37:15 the driving by Mansell after the restart here is some of the best you will ever see at Indy. And it was the guy's first race on an oval of any type, let alone a superspeedway. Passed cars at 200+ inside, outside, with inch-perfect precision as if for fun. Truly phenomenal. Unfortunate he got jumped at the last restart while leading at he was still a bit naive about IndyCar restarts and that jumping the the leader before green is fair game, if he'd known that he'd have won. Still one of the great 500 drives of all time. Especially when you add the injury element from his Phoenix crash which left a gaping cavity in his lower back that required surgery.

God I miss this. This 500 was a great example of what made the race so great. The speed, the noise and the fact that there were a lot of GREAT drivers. It was where young up and comers could challenge all time Indy greats and even former F1 champions. How many former F1 world champions were in this race? I think I count 4? Piquet, Mansell (reigning champ at that point), Andretti and Fittipaldi. I think 94 might have been the last time a former F1 champ raced at the brickyard until Alonso showed up. Piquet didn't return. Mansell, Andretti and Fittipaldi did, but Andretti would retire after 94 and Mansell would return to F1. Fittipaldi, driving for Penske, didn't even qualify for the 500 in 95 thanks to the controversial Mercedes pushrod motor that suddenly became uncompetitive thanks to rules changes. Fittipaldi would retire after a crash a day before the 96 Indy 500 at the rival Michigan 500 race run by CART... The early 90s were peak Indy 500 for speed and prestige for sure. I hope to see them claw it back.

[@robminmonaca]

[@StaySqueezy12]

Peak for prestige but today's cars have these easily beat on speed. This year was the fastest average quali speed in history.

[@dzelpwr]

@@StaySqueezy12 fastest whole field, yes, but that's due to how close the competition is with identical chassis and only 2 engine suppliers. But the fastest of today's cars still haven't come close to the 1996 track record... And if CART were still using their cars at the speedway through the late 90s, that record would have been broken a few more times--likely into the 240 MPH lap average speed range like they managed to accomplish at Fontana twice. Once in 97 with Gugelmin before they put the drag-creating wings on, and again in 2000 with the drag-making Handford device with Gil de Ferran.

MaiN tESt blame Tony George and AJ Foyt for the split.

[@wanpakudanpu]

someday people are just going to have to get over it...

[@Jay_J]

Indy car hasn't been as healthy as it is today since this race, which by the way was my first and so far only Indy 500. It's easy to point fingers at Tony George or the CART team owners for the split, but that is history now and the sport is doing well

[@robminmonaca]

Jay J I had a crazy dream recently were I was somewhere probably in Indianapolis and saw Tony George at a restaurant. I saw him and I gave him the finger and told him what he did to Indy. He got up and We almost got into a fight. I have never to to Indy but would like to go to take of my bucket list. I’m only 23 but have loved watching the Indy 500 since I have been 6 or 7. Thank god I don’t remember the true start of the split but theses videos are sad to watch what happened to the biggest race in the world turned into the most pointless war in history. very sad and frustrating time in the 90s for Indycar.

@@robminmonaca it's just FTG's fault. His alone.

Wow, Nelson Piquet was devastated. I don't remember his interview being so gut-wrenching. 1h 15m

13:36 the 77th INDY 500's Fastest rookie

[@vinewood8295]

Despite not winning, Mansell drove a superb race for a rookie. Had he been a little more experienced he'd have won but this was his first time out on an oval other than his wreck at Phoenix...

[@henry247]

"He'd have won" bs 😂😂

I was there in '93. I was drunk but I was there. Lol Had a blast! 🏎🏁

One of the best races of XX century

[@wpbarchitect1800]

2:37;32 Paul Page, the best racing announcer ever IMHO, makes a rare but huge and inexplicable error: he totally misses Mansell's amazing front straight dice through the field to P1, incorrectly calling Emo in first for almost two laps! Every time I watch that I cannot believe he did it.

[@LVM5584]

When you heard that ABC Sports intro and the Paul Page led Delta Force intro you knew something big was gonna go down

[@thearsenalmisfit2414]

If I had ever raced at Indy and won you would have seem me drink the milk and throw up about 20 secnds later. I can not stand the taste of milk itjust turns my stomach. These are my favorite Indy cars and the talent driving them puts todays line up to shame. What happened to indy car was a sad sad shame and it will probably will never recover its former glory.

[@robminmonaca]

Steve Wismark Tony George and Andrew Craig from CART. Just look up CART IRL split here on KZbin and you will see why.

I wad born 2 months before this 🤨 idk it’s weird to think my whole life hadn’t really happened at this point in time. Kinda a cool thought 💭

[@ElectoneGuy]

Those Buick V6s sound weird when they go by.

[@weallfollowmanutd]

They sound like the current F1 cars. Really awful.

[@MrRjnr]

V6, hard to believe huh??

[@mikeb1617]

His car was riding on rails....like a slot car...perfect driving.
