[@pineman10]

We flew to Indianapolis in ‘93 to see Nigel in the Indy 500, we saw him with his family in the driver roped off area and shouted for an autograph, as soon as he heard our accents he told his ppl to let us in and sat with us asking where we’re from, took photos with us and signed everything we asked him…..totally star struck as a youngster we were all blown away and he made our trip. What a guy !!

[@KiddinaSweetShop]

i met him too, but there were 4 women near me too, so he paid attention to them, ha, gold

The only time I went to the Speedway I was stunned at what a dump the area outside grandstands on the main straight was. How 'bout you?

[@paulwoodhall1748]

The only driver in the 80's and early 90's who wasn't afraid of Senna and Senna knew he couldn't get to him. For that I think Senna always felt Nigel was a true challenger to him and gave him a lot of respect.

Great guy Nigel. I was fishing on one of his lakes near his golf course back in the late 90's, and he came along and helped me land a big carp I had been fighting with for a while. It was such an experience to catch such a nice fish, and have Nigel Mansell to help me land it. I sat there stunned and speechless for about an hour after my heart rate came down again. Thanks Nigel 😀

[@winstoncat6785]

Astonished how down to earth he is (still) after the career he had. He has clearly never lost touch with himself or those around him who really mattered. Amazing.

[@leeberridge6604]

I will second that. Mansell was a hero of mine growing up and seen so many interviews. He is such an amazing but emotional man and you got the best out of him. This is such a wonderful interview. An icon of the sport.

He is a millionaire living in a tax haven. I think he is comfortable in all aspects of live. Apparently he was a asshole to drive with and work for. He is a millionaire living tax free. Yup he is comfortable ffsk. Most F1 drivers live there

I just watched this for the second time and have come to the conclusion that its the best interview with an F1 driver I've ever seen. My heart swells with appreciation & affection for Nigel. What a life, the things he's seen and the things he achieved. Emotion, bravery, humour, love, mentors, mortality, everything of a great life is here!

[@andyfell5879]

Nigel has always been a real grafter and deserves respect. Bit of a hero in my book.

[@phils866]

Fantastic, enlightening, entertaining and, at times, poignant, interview. I followed Nige in his career, but I had no idea he suffered so many serious injuries. He certainly fits his nickname of 'Il Lione'. We are lucky he survived. They were dangerous times.

[@yawnerddn]

I’ve been a Mansell fan for decades, personally witnessing so many of the events you discussed here. However I’ve never really seen an interview which I felt did him justice - until now. You absolutely nailed it, showing the true emotional family man behind the phenomenal driver that Mansell was. Many other drivers had a succession of trophy wives, Nige restricted himself to a succession of trophies! Possibly the only driver who was a match for Senna. What a legend he is, and what a great interview you gave us. xx ps the Brazilian driver whose name neither of you could remember - Rubens Barrichello

[@KiddinaSweetShop]

Thanks so much for a lovely comment, that means a lot xx

[@neillambton4065]

Very well put, and although i only ever went to one F1 race, it was Nige`s very first F1 win at Brands Hatch, i followed him all the way, a unique and gifted driver, and a real racer.

Nigel is a true gladiator the things he did in his life and the fact that he's still alive shows what a great human being he is. Great respect to him and what a incredible person

[@stuartbritton4811]

He was a brilliant, brave and very fast driver. In the mid eighties we had a real treat of drivers, from the end of the Lauda era to the beginning of Senna. Piquet was a real artist of a driver, so gifted. Old Prosty was another Jackie Stewart, so smooth and clever, to boot. Mansell, though, drove with his youknowwhats.

[@jasonmillington4344]

The era when they made proper racing drivers. True legend

[@dantew2942]

Yeah but you also missed his story about witnessing about 5 fatal crashes

[@tonystewart7287]

Yip and played for keeps

[@commentingpausedtoprotectus]

I love that Nigel calls Colin Chapman 'Mr Chapman' as he introduces him into the story. Just shows how respecful and humble he is. This is such a brilliant interview, Jodie is a natural 😊 Hearing Nigel speak of his admiration for Colin was really eye opening too, I've never heard him get so emotional.

[@Samuel-gc6js]

[@paulkrapp]

This must be the best interview with Nigel ever, positively epic! This video needs to go into an official F1 archive.

[@KiddinaSweetShop]

Ah thank you Paul! 🥰

[@GT380man]

I absolutely agree. Not only is this the most revealing interview with NM ever, it’s done with a great deal of affection & sincerity. Kudos, Jodie. And bloody hell, I knew he was determined & tough, but some of the tales of racing when most of us wouldn’t have been standing at all made me wince. The tragic deaths were horrible, and to lose people you liked very much yet to continue is impossible to fully appreciate, at least not by me. The number of times Nigel drove races & near-impossible manoeuvres meant fans always willed him on, knowing that, if his car was competitive, he would take some beating. Skill, courage, determination, will to win. It’s wonderful to see him looking content & I hope not in too much physical discomfort after several potentially career- if not life-ending injuries. The harsh realities are that we never fully heal & many mended injuries leave marks which hurt, frankly. He’s earned his well-loved status as a retired lion!

[@nikkidixon5672]

What a bloomin hero....top bloke, could listen to him for ever

[@tehgamist7139]

From a younger generation of F1 fans so never got to see Mansell, but wow, what a guy. Fascinating. So glad I watched :)

This is the best interview I have ever seen. I could listen to his stories all day. Why has nobody ever done this with Nigel before? Congratulations on this one.

[@JLgG2454]

Again, Thank You, Nigel Mansell was one of my very favourite drivers, his life and mine seemed on a similar 'Ying & Yang' pattern, as while he was repeatedly taking the second step of the world championship of the podium, my own passion for car racing was crowned as I was selected in Paris, to become a leading contender in reformulating octanes in gasoline as the lead phase-down was being enforced. The year I got the Patent for it, is the year Nigel finally got the crown. I'll never forget it!

Thank you very much for this interview. This is my hero. One could endlessly admire Senna's talent, Prost's prudence, Fangio's historical monumentality and Clark's charming and speed. But the most charismatic and spectacular for me has always been Mansell. This is a racer who has always given incredible intensity and an incredible level of fight. And of course, his entire being could not accommodate as many championship titles as he potentially could have.

[@vinniedixon1140]

Nigel is a legend. 1991 & 1992 were probably my 2 favourite years watching F1. Watching him battle with the legendary Ayrton Senna in 1991 and just missing out on the title but then came back and dominated in 1992 with that epic Williams FW14B. After that won the IndyCar title in 1993 as a rookie. Great to see & hear from him, such a nice man and hear him talk about his career. Fantatstic video & great interview Jodie, probably the best yet. Thanks for sharing.

Such a shame he walked away from F1 after winning the Title,having had to wait so long to win it,but equally what an achievement to win the 1993 Indycar Series.

[@thatguyfromcetialphaV]

I was at the British Grand Prix in 92 with my uncle. It was a fabulous day. I was in the crowd surrounding Nigel's car after he stopped at the end of the race. I still have my Onyx Williams model that I got and my Team lotus badge that Mike Hakkinen and Johnny Herbert gave to me. It was a fantastic day.

Loved to hear how warmly he speaks about his almost fatherly relationship with Colin Chapman and the funny moment of regaining consciousness on the helicopter especially.

I was scared of Mansell growing up. The aggressive style, the mustache, the Red 5, and racing against my local boys Senna and Piquet made him the perfect sports villain to me.

Having followed Williams from 1977 and their inception at Didcot and my very first job letter that I posted out after leaving school was to WGPE in June 1978, the period of Keke and Nigel as the FW10 was improved is one of the most wonderful times - I met Nigel a few times but at the Tribute to Williams day at Brands Hatch at the end of 1986 there was a lot of fun when Nigel and Patrick Head raced Ford XR3's -not a straight panel to be seen at the end.What followed over the next years were perhaps the best days of F1 I have seen - a great interview Jodie and also brought back lots of experiences I had with F1 30+ years ago.

[@leedorey1490]

A little story for you, really enjoyed this interview, what a legend. Many years ago circa 93 ish, my italian boss acquired a Testarossa from a dealership in Wiltshire. He stated it was formerly owned by Nigel. On his way back from the dealership the day he collected it he was clocked at over 100mph and banned for a month from driving. The car sat in our company HQ and our boss gave us the incentive to perform by saying the most productive employee that month would get the Testarossa for the weekend. I won and had the car for the weekend at 20 years old! I've always wondered if indeed it was owned by Nigel.

[@250GTOAJ]

I got to see Nigel race twice the first time was in Phoenix USGP in 91 and again in 93 here in Vancouver in the Cart Indy race. I borrowed Union Jack from the Hyatt Hotel and put Go Red 5 on it and we waved it everytime he went by and he even acknowledged us on the parade lap before the race. They never got their flag back! At one time my brother and Nigel looked a lot alike. With all those accidents he lucky to be alive truly he is Il Leone. Great Interview and thanks for sharing it, 😎👍🇨🇦

What an amazing interview Jodie, thank you. I’ve only ever been to one Grand Prix and that was silverstone in 92 where I met my wife. A special day. Nigel a genuine legend and a good man.

He is one of the first F1 drivers I remember from my childhood. It's like he hasn't changed one bit. Very likeable bloke. :)

Made of better stuff than any modern racing driver, IMO. Seriously, what a terrific bloke and a great interview - one of, if not the best I have seen of any F1 driver.

Living legend!! And a great raconteur, who would have known? Great and deservedly passionate interview by Jodie…thank you!

This has to be one of the best interviews I've ever seen. You have just the right amount of input and allowed Nigel to speak. Incredible watching.

[@MarkGeraghty]

Very moving, actually. What an incredible guy. I lived through this at the time, as an F1 fan, we were all rooting for Nigel.

Isn't this just the best F1 Interview ever. So relaxed and joyous. Legendary story telling and well interviewed.
