Nigel Mansells Indycar 1994

[@kevinharrington9148]

I think that most US open wheel fans knew that Mansell would be very competitive in Indycar. In fact most of us, I believe, are F1 fans first and then comes everything else. Nige had a large fanbase here also. Frank's loss was our gain! Thanks for posting.

Got the 93 version of this thanks for uploading

I liked him so much that I named my son after him.

46:25 Rahal would go on to have an Alonso-esque relationship with Honda that first year, and opted for Mercedes-branded Ilmor power in '95 after suffering through a very difficult season. But he was prophetic when he said Honda would start winning eventually; they broke through for a race win in '95 at New Hampshire and in '96 they powered Jimmy Vasser and the Ganassi team to the driver's title. Since then they've never failed to be competitive in Indy cars - and have often been dominant.

BUT they totally suck in F1 and have not won a championship in over 25 years. Last year in F1, their engines must have been made of glass: they kept breaking down!

93 Indy Season was great!

11:40 See this is what makes a world champion. Ordinary road drivers will do the drugs, drink the drink, and then go driving. A world champion will actually put his drugs into his drink and take the whole lot behind the wheel with him. You just dont find that kind of commitment to drink and drugs anymore. Go Nige! Drugs in drink ftw!!!

[@toxy3580]

Always do multiple drugs before anything important

[@growerpristine.matthewmalo9140]

wow jesus christ this lineup is like legend after legend after legend even the 3 - 4 young guys become legends in the sport ... its kinda sad to see how good indy use to be and now its just a bunch of nobody's people you never heard of before ,,, i blame nascar being so popular and the drivers making so much more money all the greatest drivers want nothing to do with indy and they pluck the best drivers at a young age and go straight into nascar

[@rnichol22]

A Bunch of old drivers and a very young James Allen

[@growerpristine.matthewmalo9140]

lol!! you obviously don't know shit about racing ,, these are fucking legends in the sport literally every single name in that lineup is a legend .... look at the crap indy cars now a bunch of fucking nobodys racing them , nascar is the big money drive so all the best drivers go straight into nascar and indy is left with a sad lineup

[@largol33t1]

Mansell would have won a few races in 1994 if his team hadn't stuck with the obsolete Lola chassis. It was crushed by the competition that year and won only one out of 16 races (Scott Goodyear won the Michigan 500). Even the new Reynard was beating the Lola every so often. If he had been at Penske, I think Al Unser Jr. would NOT have won 8 races. I think 4-5 is more likely.

4:44 the girl of the video game!

[@LemonyTang]

Anyone seen Nigel mansells grand prix victory 85 to 92 video? Been looking for years

[@BunkerMonkeyUK]

Lemony Tang that would be something special!

[@paulgraham4567]

The one from Watershed Pictures? I still have it.

[@mrico5891]

25:00 Cocoon film behind the scenes???

[@Lakota1067]

I recall that no one much got near the Penske super team that year. Sadly, Nigel lost interest when he realised he didn't have a competitive car. I suspect Senna's death had something to do with his mindset too.

[@kacieogle513]

You know nigels been in the car alot at this point. He walks a bit hunched over, like race seat position..

[@robminmonaca]

Who is ready for Alonso to maybe come to INDYCAR and bring it back to this level again !

[@amirmanibmanampan159]

Never happened

[@litestuf]

Those were the days my friends. Now we have the queen of Crash... every car the same with those shitty front wheel covers.

[@LemonyTang]

anyone know the song at the start with the start your engines?

[@simonwolfie2]

James Allen ruined my childhood

[@unseen6455]

The car he had was shit then. Not like the year before. If that was the case, he might've pulled out another championship, who knows really.

honda the yoke❗
