@@neblinasp Ah, you mean Mansell, the man who beat Piquet in the same car in 1986 & was champion of the world in 1992. The only driver to hold the F1 drivers championship & Indy car championship at the same time.
@@Formula1Madx Mansell held the F1 drivers championship and the Indycar championship at the same time because the 1993 Indycar championship concluded before the 1993 F1 season did. I don't see what's so impressive about that.
@@keyboardwarrior327 You don't see what's impressive about winning the F1 championship & the Indycar championship consecutively? How about the fact that no other human being has ever achieved it before or since. Impressive enough for you? 😏
To paraphrase Clive James - "Mansell, only one man with the big plan. Mansell was approaching the end stage, nothing could go wrong, everything had been foreseen except for the awkward presence of a waving arm."
1:23 Mansell was the proverbial underdog with the truly insane JINX. I mean, the list of his blunders or bad lucks at times looks like "Mr Bean" or "Benny Hill". I was only nine in 1991 and a French motorsport magazine wrote a four page biography titled "L'imprévisible Monsieur Mansell" "The unpredictible Mister Mansell". I red that and laughed loud. I mean, really: some mishaps are legendary. - Mansell tries to push his car under the scorching heat of Dallas, Texas... and faints. - Mansell win a race, get the winner trophy, and... cuts his hand - Mansell win a race, goes to the podium... and hits his head violently on a beam - Mansell plays football before a race and wrecks his ankle - Mansell goes to the Mexican race, eats at the buffet, and get sick with turista (yet he still raced the next day !) - Mansell dominates the Canadian GP, only has the last half of the last lap to perform; waves at the crowd... and lose the race - Mansell miss three races in a row because his kids passed him measles
Not sure if I can remember Murray's voice ever going that high! Poor Mansell.. completely dominant the entire weekend. Very happy to see Modena do well too. Good times!
Not the entire weekend darling. Patrese outqualified Mansell on the first seven races including 3 poles in-a-row one of wich was here in Canada. Throughout the year 1991 Patrese outqualified Mansell 10 to 6 with 4 poles against only 2 poles from Mansell.
he only dominated the race because patrese had a neck injury when his car broke and crashed in the morning warm up however, when you wave to crowd too early and stall the car - especially in a semi automatic - you only have yourself to blame :)
Mansell allowed the revs to drop to too low a level, charging the generator was not enough for hydraulics and electronics to work, so the car stopped working...Mansell had to greet his fans after the finish.
Rule number one in F1. Don’t wave to the fans on the last lap of a race until you cross the finish line. By waving to the fans on the last lap Mansell allowed the revs to get too low and that allowed the car to slow to a holt. That’s according to the Bring Back V10s podcast about this particular race.
Senna didn't made such a mistake in Brazil 91, finishing with a dead gearbox in 6th speed for 10 laps, nearly stalling his engine anytime. See the difference there. Like always, Piquet bragged at Nigel misfortune...
What an stupid comparision!!! Mansell's gearbox was semiautomatic and he made a mistake by not changing his gears down while he was taking that slow corner. He didn't switched gears down because he was using his hand for waving to the crowd on that corner. He took the corner maybe in 4th or 5th gear. And because of that his revs went down. And because of that the electronics mistakingly switched the engine to dead. It was as simple as that. To compare Senna with Mansell is like comparing a Ferrari with a Volkswagen.
Because everyone from 7th place down had been lapped when the flag waved, so therefore they couldn't complete another lap to un-lap themselves and finish ahead of him.
because in f1 you do not have to complete the last lap to be classified in some forms of motorsport you do, so cannot be classified if you do not cross the finish line within a certain amount of time of the winner and at a certain speed, but that is not the case in f1
Mansell was always showing off to the camera and the crowd. He got paid by his sponsors to get himself on the TV cameras as much as possible and often he would often stage dramatic events such as rants at his mechanics, moaning and do other stupid things to get the attention of the TV cameras. Waving at the crowd whilst changing gears was just another mansell doing some stupid instead of winning the race.
Sad as I'm sure it was for his fans I had to have a bit of a laugh, if nothing more than because during lockdown I've been watching races from 1985 onwards and Murray's favouritism for Nigel is both constant and infuriating. As good a commentator as Murray is, his bias for anything relating to Mansell is insufferable, to the extent you can hear him celebrating in the background when he takes the lead in some races.
Because everyone was always queuing up to have a go at Mansell including the teams he drove for. In a sport of millionairs, a man from humble origins who had to fight his way to the top just didn't fit in
@@aydankhaliq2967 for all of you who think that he made a mistake , please read this from his book "staying alive" page 181 :" The Canadian GP brought me some vitriol from certain critics, who accused me of switching off my engine when in the lead. Actually what happened was the gearbox just WENT INTO NEUTRAL and I couldn't get in gear. Eventually, although I was revving the engine,, trying to keep it going, it stalled. It was probably one of the hardest races to lose because we had such a fantastic lead at the time" So please for all of you who knows better than Mansell himself, just shut up. Thank you

"He... he's taking the hairpin ver... he's stopping! Nigel Mansell, just a few hundred yards from the flag on the last lap!"
Ah, Murray Walker.
Those Jordans were gorgeous.
The 7up Jordan Ford v8 one of the great cars in formula one in 1991
There first year.in formula one was perfect thay finish 5th in the constutors championship
Lol waving at the crowd on your last lap is tempting fate.
Sure, expecially if you already are a notorious unlucky driver as Mansell :D
He was so so bad (but carimastic) only Williams 92 extremely above from the others to give him a world championship
@@celticbhoy1887 Agreed. Not a lot between the ears. Couldn’t hold a candle to Senna & Prost in terms of race guile

I remember watching this live. When Mansell retired, I couldn't keep the smile off my face!
Need to see the press conference to see Piquet's reaction!
Piquet exactly said "I CAME OUT IN MY PANTS". Classy. So classy... typical Piquet.
@@vonbraunwerner9067"I nearly came" were Nelson's words.

It was at this moment Nigel Mansell knew... he fucked up." ROTFLMAO.
Brilliant clive james … RIP
Driver error here this should have been a dominant win in the fastest car in the field.

Mansell was a cross between Morrissey and a soap opera.
Mansell had to wait piquet retire so he could become champion. Definitely one of the free greats rivalries of the sport.
Not sure if I can remember Murray's voice ever going that high! Poor Mansell.. completely dominant the entire weekend. Very happy to see Modena do well too. Good times!
I only need to mention Gabriele Tarquini. Now that was high pitched... 😁

this still makes me laugh hysterically almost 30 years on - couldn't have happened to a nicer guy :) :) :) :)
This was Piquet's final win, one short of tying Fangio.
Senna didn't made such a mistake in Brazil 91, finishing with a dead gearbox in 6th speed for 10 laps, nearly stalling his engine anytime.

Steve Matchett's book sent me here 😌
racing was so much better back then. 1 pt for 6th makes it feel more valuable.
Nelson Piquet, Legend,
Isto sim era a verdadeira F1, não esta porcaria sem graça que ha agora e nao faço a minima questao de assistir
"He's stopping!"
Loved this Piquet beat him again glad Mansel oveemrrated driver anyway
Piquet was so lucky to win in that race mate
0:08 How bumpy
Mansell wouldn't have felt any bump a year later with active suspension system.
Foi acenar pra torcida no contorno em frente às arquibancadas e deve ter batido em algo no carro
It’s not enough to drive fast, a driver needs to be clevar
Just Mansell's stuffs😂😂
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Was it gearbox problem or dead engine?
Pavel nope brain problems. mansell started celebrating too early, let the revs dropntoo low and stalled
Kane Knightwolf he actually apparently hit the engine cut button when waving
Alex Cochrane either way, celebrating premeturely was the main cause. i can only go by what ive heard
He slowed engine down, so power supply ended and electronics was switched off.
Kuckoo from what I understood from newey’s book. He just got the revs too low. And the engine just stalled
What were you saying Murray? He is going to beat Nelson Piquet? Lol, those brits...
Dude, the brits hate Piquet. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
*"Someone has GASOLINE ?!?!" Nigel Mansell in **0:32**...*
7UP
WHAT? How did mansell finish 6th?
Because 5 cars finished ahead of him.
1:24 "It was at this moment Nigel Mansell knew... he fucked up." ROTFLMAO. Le-gen-da-ry. Nigel Mansell was Formula One FRANK GRIMES. LMAO.
How did he finish 6 if he didn't finish?
Because everyone from 7th place down had been lapped when the flag waved, so therefore they couldn't complete another lap to un-lap themselves and finish ahead of him.

Not just mansell, just British drivers in general
Commentators: Steve Slater - James Hunt.
Broadcaster: ESPN Asia.
No. This is an original broadcast from BBC. Murray Walker and James Hunt were the commentators.
Ahahahah mansell such a morron
It hurts reviewing those pictures. Even more bitter with Piquet’s win
For all of you who think Mansell made a mistake, I can tell you : he didn’t
Every reputable source I've seen says he did. Why do you think different?
Because everyone was always queuing up to have a go at Mansell including the teams he drove for. In a sport of millionairs, a man from humble origins who had to fight his way to the top just didn't fit in
He didn't gear down for the hair pin therefore causing his car to stall. Sounds like it's his fault.
