00:03:40,804 --> 00:03:42,844
Motor raoing was his Iife,

I mean , I ' m sure all the memUers

Uefore the Brazilian

80

AnU what he meant was

83
00:04:03,524 --> 00:04:05,444
He saiU , "Oh , I ' m 9onna start

many tracks open to the publlc.
163
00:07:31,644 --> 00:07:33,564
In fact, it's becoming
lncreasingly popular
164
00:07:33,644 --> 00:07:35,044
as a competitive sport.
165
00:07:35,124 --> 00:07:36,964
I really persuaUeU my tather
166
00:07:37,044 --> 00:07:39,644
when I was six anU a half,
seven , to take me...
167
00:07:39,884 --> 00:07:42,884
it was to Ghenin9ton ,
Kart Traok.
168
00:07:43,484 --> 00:07:45,604
AnU I thought,
" Hello, I 've got this. "
169
00:07:46,204 --> 00:07:47,404
It was terrifyinD .
170
00:07:47,684 --> 00:07:49,924
AnU then I haU
a terriUIe ruUe awakening
171
00:07:50,004 --> 00:07:52,364
beGause every time I UiU one Iap
anU I thought I was really quiGk
172
00:07:52,444 --> 00:07:53,964
everyone else haU Uone two Iaps.
173
00:07:54,044 --> 00:07:56,644
And the next praGtiGe, I went
out anU I went Uown the straight
174
00:07:56,724 --> 00:07:58,244
anU everything went quiet
175
00:07:58,324 --> 00:07:59,924
anU oUviously,
I Game to a stanUstilI
176
00:08:00,004 --> 00:08:02,084
anU had the marshals
running over to me
177
00:08:02,204 --> 00:08:03,364
saiU , "You OK? You OK? "
178
00:08:03,444 --> 00:08:05,484
I saiU ,
"Yeah , the ohain ' s fallen off. "
179
00:08:05,804 --> 00:08:06,884
AnU he IookeU at me, he saiU
180
00:08:06,964 --> 00:08:08,124
"You 've got a Uit more
of a Problem
181
00:08:08,204 --> 00:08:09,204
than the Ghain falling off. "
182
00:08:09,284 --> 00:08:10,764
The whole engine haU tell off.
183
00:08:11,084 --> 00:08:14,204
And so my en9ine and ohain
was Uown the roaU .
184
00:08:14,284 --> 00:08:15,284
HE LAUG HS
185
00:08:15,524 --> 00:08:17,324
I rememUer havin9 a tear
in my eye then
186
00:08:17,404 --> 00:08:18,484
anU my UaU saying
187
00:08:18,564 --> 00:08:20,244
"Oh , we ' II try
anU 9et a better engine
188
00:08:20,324 --> 00:08:21,604
anU a better kart for you . "
189
00:08:25,404 --> 00:08:26,884
I think it was
aUout my thirU event
190
00:08:26,964 --> 00:08:28,764
was the British Championships.
191
00:08:29,484 --> 00:08:31,924
The British team manager
was there watohing
192
00:08:32,004 --> 00:08:33,884
to piGk a team to 9o
anU raGe in Holland
193
00:08:33,964 --> 00:08:36,364
anU SweUen anU go to
the WorlU Championships.
194
00:08:41,724 --> 00:08:43,244
AnU I went trom
the baok of the griU
195
00:08:43,324 --> 00:08:46,644
whioh was aUout SS karts,
up to thirU in one raGe.
196
00:08:47,244 --> 00:08:49,004
He piGkeU me
as one ot the Urivers
197
00:08:49,084 --> 00:08:50,524
to aotually Uo that.
198
00:08:50,604 --> 00:08:52,044
We were oUviously very thrilleU
199
00:08:52,124 --> 00:08:53,924
Uut inoreUiUIy UisappointeU
200
00:08:54,004 --> 00:08:55,564
Ueoause we UiUn 't have
the tinanoes
201
00:08:55,644 --> 00:08:57,084
to 9o anU get another engine.
202
00:08:57,164 --> 00:08:58,844
It was my 9ranUparents,
when they heard
203
00:08:58,924 --> 00:09:01,044
that I ' U been PiGkeU
for the British team
204
00:09:01,364 --> 00:09:03,764
they Uou9ht me
a oomplete new en9ine .
205
00:09:03,844 --> 00:09:06,124
AnU I ' II never forget,
Ueoause it was £S4
206
00:09:06,204 --> 00:09:08,204
whiGh was
aUout $5O baok then
207
00:09:08,484 --> 00:09:11,404
to allow me to go raoing
anU represent myself
208
00:09:11,484 --> 00:09:13,924
in the British team ,
whiGh was truly fantastiG.
209
00:09:19,084 --> 00:09:21,004
I was training as an enDineer
at LuGas AerospaGe
210
00:09:21,164 --> 00:09:22,644
and I wanteU to go raoing
211
00:09:22,724 --> 00:09:24,644
I UiUn 't want to 9o
kartin9 anymore.
212
00:09:27,724 --> 00:09:28,884
WI NDGOR:
You raoeU karts
213
00:09:28,964 --> 00:09:30,484
but it you really wanted
to show your talent
214
00:09:30,564 --> 00:09:32,244
you got into
Formula PorU 1 6OO.
215
00:09:32,524 --> 00:09:35,884
S5-Gar 9riUs,
inoreUiUIy GomPetitive.
216
00:09:36,044 --> 00:09:38,684
WiUe traGk Gars,

217
00:09:38,764 --> 00:09:40,884
just sliUin9 all over the plaGe.
218
00:09:41,044 --> 00:09:44,524
It was the oategory, really,
oos it' s mostly Uown to
219
00:09:44,604 --> 00:09:46,044
what the Uriver
Gan Uo in the Gar
220
00:09:46,124 --> 00:09:47,684
not the paGka9e he ' s Urivin9 .
221
00:09:47,764 --> 00:09:49,364
It you ooulU win
the British Championship
222
00:09:49,444 --> 00:09:51,084
in Formula PorU , you know
223
00:09:51,164 --> 00:09:53,084
you haU a future
in front of you
224
00:09:53,164 --> 00:09:54,884
it you GoulU finU the funUing .
225
00:09:54,964 --> 00:09:57,604
AnU my fher, Erio Mansell ,
UiU a Ueal with me
226
00:09:57,684 --> 00:09:59,844
anU saiU , " Look, finish
your qualifioations
227
00:09:59,924 --> 00:10:01,524
it takes three or tour years
228
00:10:01,764 --> 00:10:04,364
and onGe you get your Ue9ree
and you ' re an en9ineer
229
00:10:04,444 --> 00:10:06,284
fully fleUgeU anU you 've got

230
00:10:06,364 --> 00:10:09,404
at Luoas AerospaGe, " he says,
"then we ' II go raoing . "
231
00:10:09,484 --> 00:10:11,964
1 9 anU a halt, 2O ,
I got my results
232
00:10:12,044 --> 00:10:13,644
anU I was elateU , I passeU .
233
00:10:14,244 --> 00:10:17,164
I UiUn 't get a first-GIass Pass,
Uut I got a pass.
234
00:10:17,244 --> 00:10:18,724
Right, Iet' s go raoing ,
you know.
235
00:10:18,804 --> 00:10:20,324
Really, really good ,
really happy.
236
00:10:20,404 --> 00:10:23,004
AnU then
my UaU IaugheU at me
237
00:10:23,204 --> 00:10:25,844
anU I diUn 't appreGiate him
Iaughin9 at me
238
00:10:25,924 --> 00:10:27,404
anU I UiUn 't unUerstanU it.
239
00:10:27,524 --> 00:10:28,924
AnU I saiU ,
"Why you Iaughing , DaU? "
240
00:10:29,004 --> 00:10:30,764
He said , "Well , where
U 'you think we ' re Donna get
241
00:10:30,844 --> 00:10:31,964
money from to 9o raGin9?
242
00:10:32,044 --> 00:10:33,324
We Gan 't 9o raGin9. "
243
00:10:33,564 --> 00:10:34,764
I saiU , "You promiseU me. "
244
00:10:34,844 --> 00:10:36,764
He saiU , "Yes, " he saiU ,
" I UiU that for you
245
00:10:36,844 --> 00:10:39,044
so you make sure you get
your qualitiGations.
246
00:10:39,124 --> 00:10:41,364
I haU to 9ive you
a goal to aGhieve. "
247
00:10:41,764 --> 00:10:43,044
AnU we fell out.
248
00:10:43,124 --> 00:10:44,604
I fell out with my parents
249
00:10:44,684 --> 00:10:46,204
anU my daU at that point
250
00:10:46,284 --> 00:10:48,964
whiGh is a bit saU for me
to even share th with you now
251
00:10:49,044 --> 00:10:52,084
UeGause I UiUn 't speak
to him tor a tair bit of time.
252
00:10:54,164 --> 00:10:55,564
He really diUn 't have
any money, you know
253
00:10:55,644 --> 00:10:57,124
anU he haU to work really harU
254
00:10:57,204 --> 00:10:59,804
anU to make enUs meet
anU get out there
255
00:10:59,884 --> 00:11:03,004
and he was UetermineU
but unUer-PrivilegeU
256
00:11:03,084 --> 00:11:04,164
I think you shoulU say.
257
00:11:05,404 --> 00:11:06,724
ALLEN :
NiDel ' s wife, Roseanne
258
00:11:06,804 --> 00:11:10,724
is one of the 9reat ti9ures,
aGtually, in the story.
259
00:11:10,964 --> 00:11:12,484
They' d met
when they were young .
260
00:11:12,564 --> 00:11:14,604
I mean , they woulU sleep
in the baok of a van
261
00:11:14,684 --> 00:11:17,164
at the raoetraok rather than
spenU the money on a B&B
262
00:11:17,244 --> 00:11:18,284
or a hotel .
263
00:11:18,364 --> 00:11:21,324
She basiGally gave
all of her salary
264
00:11:21,404 --> 00:11:24,044
as a British Gas Uemonstrator
to him , to go raGing .
265
00:11:24,124 --> 00:11:26,044
I mean , few wives
woulU just Uelieve in
266
00:11:26,124 --> 00:11:27,564
this orazy pipe dream
267
00:11:27,644 --> 00:11:29,404
that Ni9el seemeU to have
the time
268
00:11:29,484 --> 00:11:31,364
Uut she stuok with him
throu9h thiGk and thin .
269
00:11:36,044 --> 00:11:37,884
MANGELL: Well , my tirst
Formula PorU Gar
270
00:11:37,964 --> 00:11:39,444
was Uug out ot a 9arUen .
271
00:11:39,524 --> 00:11:41,284
It was a Javelin JL5
272
00:11:41,364 --> 00:11:43,964
anU it haU flowers
anU weeUs growing out ot it.
273
00:11:44,324 --> 00:11:47,004
My oar was going down
the straight aUout 1 4O
274
00:11:47,084 --> 00:11:49,324
anU the Uaokend
just Uropped down a Iittle Uit
275
00:11:49,404 --> 00:11:51,084
and I saw this wheel
go tlying past
276
00:11:51,164 --> 00:11:53,124
anU realiseU it was my wheel
that haU Gome off.
277
00:11:53,444 --> 00:11:55,084
AnU so I Uidn 't raoe
that Gar anymore.
278
00:11:55,964 --> 00:11:58,724
I borroweU
then a Crossley 25
279
00:11:58,804 --> 00:12:00,644
anU I went anU won
straightaway, first time out.
280
00:12:00,724 --> 00:12:02,684
WI NDGOR: Even then ,
he haU this inner Uelief
281
00:12:02,764 --> 00:12:04,924
that he was the fastest
9uy on the raGe traok.
282
00:12:05,164 --> 00:12:06,484
Really, really quiok.
283
00:12:06,604 --> 00:12:08,084
You GoulU see him on the traok
284
00:12:08,164 --> 00:12:10,364
with other Urivers, anU they' U
Ue going into the GhiGane
285
00:12:10,444 --> 00:12:12,724
and Nigel woulU be the one
ooming in a Iittle earlier
286
00:12:12,804 --> 00:12:14,884
a Iittle bit softer
with his transitions.
287
00:12:14,964 --> 00:12:16,724
CHAN DHOK:
Nigel haU an inGreUible year
288
00:12:16,804 --> 00:12:18,364
in '77 in Pormula Ford .
289
00:12:18,444 --> 00:12:20,404
He entereU 42 raGes
290
00:12:20,484 --> 00:12:22,204
anU won SS of them .
291
00:12:22,284 --> 00:12:23,684
It' s an inorediUIe reGorU .
292
00:12:23,764 --> 00:12:25,884
We enUeU up winnin9
the Ghampionship
293
00:12:25,964 --> 00:12:26,964
whioh was wonUertul .
294
00:12:27,324 --> 00:12:29,164
But it sort of took off
from then .
295
00:12:29,244 --> 00:12:30,324
But what I UiUn 't realise
296
00:12:30,404 --> 00:12:32,244
onoe you Ueoame ohampion
in one series
297
00:12:32,324 --> 00:12:35,124
you step uP to another series,
you start all over a9ain .
298
00:12:40,204 --> 00:12:42,764
'7B was a Uit of
a ni9htmare for Nigel .
299
00:12:42,924 --> 00:12:45,644
I mean , it was the worst time
ot my Iife, really.
300
00:12:45,884 --> 00:12:48,564
The step from Pormula ForU
to Formula S is huge.
301
00:12:49,084 --> 00:12:50,204
You know,
we haU a home then
302
00:12:50,284 --> 00:12:53,044
our first home only oost
just over £4,OOO
303
00:12:53,124 --> 00:12:55,124
anU we sold
everything we owneU
304
00:12:55,324 --> 00:12:58,804
Uooks, piGtures,
furniture anU the home
305
00:12:58,884 --> 00:13:00,964
anU went into
a renteU aoGommoUation
306
00:13:01,284 --> 00:13:04,124
to Ue aUIe to Uuy a works Urive
307
00:13:04,364 --> 00:13:06,324
whioh was Maroh Engineerin9.
308
00:13:06,444 --> 00:13:07,884
CHAN DHOK:
A works team at Pormula S
309
00:13:07,964 --> 00:13:09,364
is essentially one th's UaGkeU
310
00:13:09,444 --> 00:13:11,884
Uy one of the faGtory
engine supPIiers
311
00:13:11,964 --> 00:13:13,244
or Ghassis manufaGturers.
312
00:13:13,324 --> 00:13:16,404
So, they typiGally enU up
bein9 the Uest teams
313
00:13:16,484 --> 00:13:19,004
with the Uest engines,
the Uest set-ups
314
00:13:19,084 --> 00:13:21,244
anU in the enU ,
the best Urivers.
315
00:13:21,484 --> 00:13:23,484
AnU I saiU , " Look, if we give
' em all this money
316
00:13:23,564 --> 00:13:25,324
we feel sure
that er a few raoes
317
00:13:25,404 --> 00:13:27,324
I ' II 9et some results,
anU they' II Duarantee
318
00:13:27,404 --> 00:13:29,284
that they' II brin9 a sponsor
tor us on UoarU . "
319
00:13:29,444 --> 00:13:32,084
In six weeks, they took
all the money anU fired me.
320
00:13:32,444 --> 00:13:34,004
WI NDGOR:
He only diU five raGes that year
321
00:13:34,084 --> 00:13:35,044
anU the money ran out.
322
00:13:35,124 --> 00:13:38,164
A 9uy that 9ooU ,
what a oryin9 shame.
323
00:13:38,244 --> 00:13:39,324
You know, she was workin9

I manageU then

Andretti, Peterson, Schecer,

00:14:06,604 --> 00:14:09,764
Williams haU an inoreUiUIe start

337
00:14:15,004 --> 00:14:17,204
Yeah , the O7 was a quiGk oar

00:14:17,284 --> 00:14:18,804
trom the minute
it turneU a wheel .
339
00:14:19,004 --> 00:14:21,404
The 9rip of the oar was
just in another worlU .
340
00:14:21,604 --> 00:14:22,884
With these grounU efteGt Gars

something tor nothing .
345
00:14:29,004 --> 00:14:30,964
Ground effeot was a strange iUea
346
00:14:31,044 --> 00:14:32,204
where you haU skirts
347
00:14:32,284 --> 00:14:34,564

the 9round arounU the Gar

that then suokeU it Uown
to the 9round
349
00:14:36,484 --> 00:14:38,924
whiGh meant you GoulU go rounU
the oorners more quiokly.
350
00:14:39,004 --> 00:14:41,804
AnU Gertainly 9oing
into the 1 979 British GranU Prix
351
00:14:41,884 --> 00:14:43,524
Williams were

352
00:14:46,524 --> 00:14:48,364
RI DER: When they turneU up
at Gilverstone
353
00:14:48,444 --> 00:14:50,484
they were a seGonU faster
than anything else.
354
00:14:50,604 --> 00:14:52,724
They' d Uone a few tweaks
to the aeroUynamios
355
00:14:52,804 --> 00:14:54,924
anU wow, they haU hit
the magio spot.
356
00:14:56,804 --> 00:14:58,244
AnU they were uP anU running .
357
00:14:58,804 --> 00:15:02,244
WI N DSOR: '79 British GranU

358
00:15:02,324 --> 00:15:03,404
anU it was Silverstone.
359
00:15:03,484 --> 00:15:06,684
Not that by MonUay Frank

360
00:15:06,764 --> 00:15:09,004
He was alreaUy thinking of
the next raoe, fypioally Prank.
361
00:15:09,084 --> 00:15:11,444
But that was
an interesting Grossover
362
00:15:11,524 --> 00:15:14,204
ot Nigel anU Williams that Uay
363
00:15:14,284 --> 00:15:17,404
UeGause he was in the Formula S
raoe in a Unipart oar.
364
00:15:17,684 --> 00:15:20,644
I was very olose frienUs

365
00:15:20,724 --> 00:15:22,404
who, at that point,
was at Lotus

367
00:15:23,964 --> 00:15:25,084
COMM ENTATOR:
It seems a pity

00:15:25,164 --> 00:15:26,884
that with a British car
Iike thls

00:15:26,964 --> 00:15:29,924

We woulU Ue the tirst team

So I Ura9geU Carlos anU Colin

374
00:15:41,364 --> 00:15:43,444
Carlos took one Iook at him
anU turneU to me anU saiU
375
00:15:43,524 --> 00:15:45,004
"Yeah , yeah .
He ' s 9ot it for sure. "
376
00:15:45,164 --> 00:15:48,244
AnU he was saying to Colin ,
" Look, this 9uy is really 9ooU . "
377
00:15:49,004 --> 00:15:51,004
RI DER: We UiU an interview

382
00:16:02,324 --> 00:16:04,524

Nigel Man-sell .

The pivotal time in 1 979

Formula 1 was
unbelievaUIy dangerous.

00:18:51,324 --> 00:18:53,084
anU I was a Uit nervous.
459
00:18:54,204 --> 00:18:57,604
And then I went out in the Gar,

460
00:18:57,804 --> 00:19:00,044
it felt Iike a Ui9 rook

00:19:00,524 --> 00:19:03,484
Instantaneously,
everythin9 slowed Uown .

The next Iap, I was

They were very impresseU

470
00:19:20,244 --> 00:19:22,164

Y' know, " Do we get

This is the ultimate Ghanoe now,

00:19:55,044 --> 00:19:57,484
to throw him in for his
granU Prix deUut in Austria.
483
00:19:57,564 --> 00:20:01,164
A year before, he was oleaning
offioes in Cirenoester
484
00:20:01,324 --> 00:20:02,924
anU now he finUs himself
on the 9rid
485
00:20:03,004 --> 00:20:04,844
of a Formula 1 granU prix.
486
00:20:05,084 --> 00:20:08,364
The press Goverage at the time,
a Iot of People were writin9
487
00:20:08,444 --> 00:20:12,084
you know, "Why is this guy Ueing
fast-traokeU into Pormula 1 ?
488
00:20:12,164 --> 00:20:14,444
There are so many more
Ueservin9 Urivers out there. "
489
00:20:14,524 --> 00:20:16,644
AnU Nigel , I think,
only haU a Gouple of wins
490
00:20:16,724 --> 00:20:19,004
in Pormula S
and not Uone muoh more.
491
00:20:19,164 --> 00:20:21,244
The thought was
he ' U sort of IuGkeU in .
492
00:20:21,524 --> 00:20:22,924
You just Uon 't have
the experienoe
493
00:20:23,004 --> 00:20:24,244
you Uon 't have the name.
494
00:20:24,324 --> 00:20:26,124
People were sayin9
with a name Iike mine
495
00:20:26,204 --> 00:20:27,844
I ' U never make it in Pormula 1 .
496
00:20:27,924 --> 00:20:29,884
The name was terriUIe,
I was terriUIe.
497
00:20:30,284 --> 00:20:33,124
Um , you know, they even
GommenteU on my aGoent
498
00:20:33,204 --> 00:20:36,204
that was, you know, shoGking ,
I shoulUn 't Ue in Formula 1 .
499
00:20:36,284 --> 00:20:38,524
You know, he shoulU
oome from Argentina
500
00:20:38,604 --> 00:20:40,284
anU be oalleU
Juan Manuel Pan9io.
501
00:20:40,364 --> 00:20:43,204
He shoulU Ue oalleU
AIUerto Asoari or somethin9 .
502
00:20:43,284 --> 00:20:44,644
You know, Enzo Ferrari .
503
00:20:44,724 --> 00:20:46,564
Anything , you know,
Uut Nigel ManselI
504
00:20:46,644 --> 00:20:47,764
trom BirminDham .
505
00:20:47,844 --> 00:20:50,444
It UiUn 't seem to fit well
with our...
506
00:20:50,524 --> 00:20:51,804
I think with our iUea of
507
00:20:51,884 --> 00:20:54,964
what a 9Iamorous
Pormula 1 raGin9 Uriver
508
00:20:55,044 --> 00:20:56,084
shoulU Ue.
509
00:20:56,164 --> 00:20:57,804
ALLEN : The Pormula 1 worlU
is everything
510
00:20:57,884 --> 00:20:59,724
that people think it is
from the outside .
511
00:20:59,804 --> 00:21:02,684
It' s stylish , it' s glamorous,
it' s exolusive
512
00:21:02,804 --> 00:21:04,204
and it' s always
sort of marketeU itselt
513
00:21:04,284 --> 00:21:05,604
on that kinU of oaGhet.
514
00:21:05,684 --> 00:21:07,924
AnU that makes it
a Uig ohallenge for outsiUers
515
00:21:08,004 --> 00:21:09,164
to finU their way in .
516
00:21:09,444 --> 00:21:10,844
They were sli9htly snoUUy
about him
517
00:21:10,924 --> 00:21:11,924
it I ' m honest, you know.
518
00:21:12,004 --> 00:21:14,764
MANSELL: Colin was
his own person , his own man .
519
00:21:15,164 --> 00:21:16,324
He ooulU have haU
520
00:21:16,404 --> 00:21:18,244
proUaUIy a ohoiGe of
2O other Urivers
521
00:21:18,324 --> 00:21:20,604
with all sorts of
Formula 1 experienoe.
522
00:21:20,684 --> 00:21:22,444
I was always pushinD the Iimits
523
00:21:22,524 --> 00:21:23,884
of trying to Ue
part of somethin9
524
00:21:23,964 --> 00:21:25,404
that I wasn 't part of.
525
00:21:26,364 --> 00:21:29,604
A Iot of the press was waitin9
tor Nigel to fail .
526
00:21:29,684 --> 00:21:31,004
AnU sure enough . . .
HE LAUG HS
527
00:21:31,084 --> 00:21:33,764
...in Austria, I mean ,
you 9ot a sense of the future
528
00:21:33,844 --> 00:21:35,844
Ueoause there was
Urama attaoheU to it.
529
00:21:35,924 --> 00:21:38,804
There is always drama attaoheU
to whatever Nigel Mansell Uoes.
530
00:21:39,124 --> 00:21:41,404
I 9o on the griU
for my first ever raGe.
531
00:21:41,524 --> 00:21:43,084
The guy Gomes with
a UuGket of wer
532
00:21:43,164 --> 00:21:44,884
anU pours a buoket ot water
in the oookPit
533
00:21:44,964 --> 00:21:46,124
beoause I ' m getting
my ass Uurnt
534
00:21:46,204 --> 00:21:47,604
got a Ieak in the fuel tank.
535
00:21:47,684 --> 00:21:49,404
Can you imagine
the Urivers of toUay
536
00:21:49,484 --> 00:21:51,364
sittin9 on the 9rid
9ettinD their ass burnt
537
00:21:51,444 --> 00:21:53,844
anU their 9oolies and everything
else down there?
538
00:21:53,924 --> 00:21:57,484
I suffereU tirst-Uegree burns
of the Iower UuttoGks
539
00:21:57,604 --> 00:22:00,764
so it was, er, quite
an unGomfortaUIe raGe for me.
540
00:22:01,324 --> 00:22:02,804
MANGELL:
Oh , I got Uurnt to Uu9gery.
541
00:22:02,884 --> 00:22:04,564
I got seGonU
anU thirU-Uegree Uurns.
542
00:22:04,644 --> 00:22:07,804
AnU he was sort of IifteU out
of the Gar with Uurns
543
00:22:07,884 --> 00:22:09,644
anU everything else,
sPent the niDht in hospital .
544
00:22:09,924 --> 00:22:11,524
I NTERVI EWER:
Can you sit Uown OK now?
545
00:22:11,604 --> 00:22:12,444
Well , as you notioeU
546
00:22:12,524 --> 00:22:14,324
I 've proUaUIy Ueen
stanUing up a Iot toUay.
547
00:22:14,404 --> 00:22:15,404
HE LAUG HS
548
00:22:15,644 --> 00:22:18,284
MANSELL: We went to ZanUvoort
tor another raoe.
549
00:22:18,764 --> 00:22:20,604
With only ten minutes to 9o,
he saiU
550
00:22:20,724 --> 00:22:23,124
" RiDht, I ' m giving you
EIio ' s Gar, go and qualify. "
551
00:22:23,204 --> 00:22:24,684
They Uidn 't Uo
a seat aUjustment
552
00:22:24,764 --> 00:22:26,964
seatbelt aUjustment,
UiUn 't Uo a pedal aUjustment
553
00:22:27,044 --> 00:22:28,404
just straight into the Gar.
554
00:22:28,484 --> 00:22:29,604
The pressure.
555
00:22:30,524 --> 00:22:34,004
I think I qualifieU 1 4th or 1 5th
but more importantly
556
00:22:34,084 --> 00:22:37,724
I was only one or two tenths
slower than EIio, with one go.
557
00:22:37,804 --> 00:22:39,084
And I think at that moment
558
00:22:39,484 --> 00:22:41,084
Colin thou9ht,
"Yeah , Nigel ManselI
559
00:22:41,164 --> 00:22:43,084
is a serious raoing Uriver. "
560
00:22:43,684 --> 00:22:46,964
At the same time, Frank
haU this Ueautitul oPerion .
561
00:22:47,524 --> 00:22:49,884
The Gar was, you know,
just wonUertul .
562
00:22:49,964 --> 00:22:52,004
To this day,
you 've 9ot to say AIan Jones
563
00:22:52,084 --> 00:22:55,444
in that O7 Williams,
partiGularly 1 9BO
564
00:22:55,524 --> 00:22:57,524
that' s as soliU
a oar-Uriver oomUination
565
00:22:57,604 --> 00:22:59,284
as you ' II ever see in Pormula 1
566
00:22:59,364 --> 00:23:00,764
oos it' s one thin9 to win
9ranU prix
567
00:23:00,844 --> 00:23:03,084
it' s quite another to win
WorlU Championships.
568
00:23:03,604 --> 00:23:05,724
CHAN DHOK: 1 9BO was
a hu9e year in the history
569
00:23:05,804 --> 00:23:07,124
of the Williams ' GranU Prix team
570
00:23:07,204 --> 00:23:09,324
Ueoause that was
when AIan Jones olinoheU
571
00:23:09,404 --> 00:23:11,764
their first
World Championship title.
572
00:23:11,884 --> 00:23:13,004
RI DER:
AnU it was eraorUinary
573
00:23:13,084 --> 00:23:14,084
when you refleGt now
574
00:23:14,164 --> 00:23:16,924
on how Ion9 it takes a team
to UuilU itself
575
00:23:17,004 --> 00:23:19,644
establish itselt, Iet alone
win a worlU ohamPionship.
576
00:23:19,724 --> 00:23:22,244
And they UiU it in the spaGe ot
effeGtively three years.
577
00:23:22,324 --> 00:23:24,444
It is one of
Formula 1 ' s 9reat stories.
578
00:23:31,604 --> 00:23:33,564
CHAPMAN : EIio anU of oourse,
Nigel ManselI
579
00:23:33,644 --> 00:23:35,804
two youn9
up-and-Goming Urivers.
580
00:23:35,924 --> 00:23:38,684
EIio has more experienoe
than Ni9el .
581
00:23:38,964 --> 00:23:42,324
Nigel is the best British Uriver
we 've haU Gome alon9 in years.
582
00:23:42,524 --> 00:23:44,244
The thing that I was
really gettin9 a sense of
583
00:23:44,324 --> 00:23:47,124
at the Lotus Uase in the early
' BOs was this UonU
584
00:23:47,204 --> 00:23:50,924
that haU Ueen formeU between
Nigel Mansell anU Colin Chapman .
585
00:23:51,004 --> 00:23:52,804
MANGELL: I think he saw in me
someone who
586
00:23:52,884 --> 00:23:55,164
haU a tremenUous
apPetite to Iearn
587
00:23:55,244 --> 00:23:57,324
anU Ueing a qualitied engineer
at that time
588
00:23:57,404 --> 00:23:59,164
I haU a far Dreater
understanUing
589
00:23:59,244 --> 00:24:01,444
than someUoUy
who just was a Uriver.
590
00:24:01,564 --> 00:24:04,524
What he UiU for me
was just Iike a father fi9ure.
591
00:24:04,764 --> 00:24:06,804
It he saiU Uo somethin9,
jumP out the winUow
592
00:24:06,884 --> 00:24:07,924
I ' U jump out the window.
593
00:24:08,004 --> 00:24:10,084
RI DER: He was also
very muGh appreGiating
594
00:24:10,164 --> 00:24:11,644
his attituUe to raGin9
595
00:24:11,764 --> 00:24:12,804
whioh is "go tor it" .
596
00:24:15,364 --> 00:24:16,684
M URRAY WALKER:
So, Mansell third
597
00:24:16,764 --> 00:24:19,244
number 12 in the new Lotus B7.
598
00:24:19,324 --> 00:24:21,044
Only his elghth grandprix.
599
00:24:21,644 --> 00:24:23,364
CHAN DHOK:
Ni9el was Uoing a Dreat joU.
600
00:24:23,444 --> 00:24:25,724
He mana9ed to 9et
a oouple ot poUium finishes
601
00:24:25,804 --> 00:24:27,564
one in ' B1 , one in ' B2 .
602
00:24:27,964 --> 00:24:29,764
And he was startin9
to estaUIish himself
603
00:24:29,844 --> 00:24:30,804
in Formula 1 .
604
00:24:31,004 --> 00:24:32,044
ALLEN :
Nigel was haPpy.
605
00:24:32,124 --> 00:24:34,324
He was in a really gooU plaGe
er all the stru9gles
606
00:24:34,404 --> 00:24:35,524
to get to this point.
607
00:24:35,604 --> 00:24:37,324
He was a granU prix star,
he was estaUIisheU .
608
00:24:37,404 --> 00:24:38,644
He was making
some Ueoent money.
609
00:24:38,804 --> 00:24:41,684
PRESENTER: The gold Ieerlng
on the 21, UOO sports car
610
00:24:41,764 --> 00:24:42,844
says it all.
611
00:24:42,924 --> 00:24:44,244
Nigel Mansell has arrived.
612
00:24:45,684 --> 00:24:47,404
RI DER: Williams were
absolutely flyin9
613
00:24:47,484 --> 00:24:48,804
in the puUIiG Gonsoiousness
614
00:24:48,884 --> 00:24:50,444
anU a Iot ot the suPport
615
00:24:50,524 --> 00:24:52,404
that haU Ueen very muoh
UehinU Lotus
616
00:24:52,484 --> 00:24:54,804
at the end of the '7Os

617
00:24:54,884 --> 00:24:56,364
this Iittle team at DidGot.
618
00:24:56,444 --> 00:25:00,644
The FWO7 anU the PWOB ,
GonoeptualiseU Uy PatriGk HeaU
619
00:25:00,724 --> 00:25:02,884
anU Frank Durney
took 9rounU effeGts
620
00:25:02,964 --> 00:25:05,244
anU raised the Uar
to a whole new Ievel .
621
00:25:05,324 --> 00:25:07,964
By 1 9B2 , RosUerg
haU UelivereU the team
622
00:25:08,044 --> 00:25:09,964
its seoonU WorlU ChampionshiP.
623
00:25:10,124 --> 00:25:11,764
Williams were now
well estaUIisheU
624
00:25:11,844 --> 00:25:13,684
as a top team in Pormula 1 .
625
00:25:20,524 --> 00:25:23,564
Colin Chapman, the man
who made Lotus cars famous
626
00:25:23,644 --> 00:25:25,364
around the world has dled.
627
00:25:25,444 --> 00:25:26,604
He was 54.
628
00:25:26,804 --> 00:25:29,564
A spokesman for Lotus
says he died of a heart aack.
629
00:25:32,084 --> 00:25:33,724
I was aUsolutely UevastateU .
630
00:25:33,804 --> 00:25:34,844
I mean ...
631
00:25:35,084 --> 00:25:37,244
there ' s no worUs
even er all these years
632
00:25:37,324 --> 00:25:38,604
to desGriUe the feelin9s.
633
00:25:39,444 --> 00:25:42,684
Whatever motivation I haU
just evaporateU in thin air.
634
00:25:43,924 --> 00:25:46,004
The Uireotion in Iite was Iost.
635
00:25:47,564 --> 00:25:50,324
It was the most
shookinD time in my Iife
636
00:25:50,964 --> 00:25:53,084
Gos it wasn 't just
the faot that we Iost Colin
637
00:25:53,164 --> 00:25:55,524
I felt Iike I Iost my father.
638
00:25:56,164 --> 00:25:58,564
So the regime ohangeU at Lotus
639
00:25:58,644 --> 00:26:01,484
anU Colin Chapman was
replaoed Uy Peter Warr
640
00:26:01,564 --> 00:26:03,804
who haU Ueen
Colin Chapman ' s numUer two
641
00:26:03,884 --> 00:26:06,364
who wasn 't as appreGiative
of Nigel 's talents
642
00:26:06,444 --> 00:26:08,084
as Colin haU Ueen
643
00:26:08,644 --> 00:26:11,044
anU they IoGkeU horns
very early on .
644
00:26:11,644 --> 00:26:14,404
CommuniGations
anU Uynamios anU IeaUership
645
00:26:14,484 --> 00:26:16,044
just UisappeareU .
646
00:26:16,124 --> 00:26:17,364
You UiU get the impression
647
00:26:17,444 --> 00:26:20,724
that Peter Warr was not only
very neDative within the team
648
00:26:20,804 --> 00:26:23,004
towarUs Nigel ,
but also outside the team
649
00:26:23,084 --> 00:26:26,044
anU Ni9el haU a very
Uiffioult time in makin9 sure
650
00:26:26,124 --> 00:26:28,804
that his rePutation
remaineU intaGt.
651
00:26:29,044 --> 00:26:32,204
I suppose a Iow point
was Monaoo 1 9B4
652
00:26:32,284 --> 00:26:33,844
whioh was a very wet raoe.
653
00:26:33,924 --> 00:26:36,244
CHAN DHOK: He qualitied seoond
on the 9rid UehinU Prost
654
00:26:36,324 --> 00:26:38,844
anU he was over a seoond taster
655
00:26:38,924 --> 00:26:41,164
than his Lotus teammate ,
EIio de Angelis.
656
00:26:41,244 --> 00:26:43,644
WI N DSOR: AnU the whole
of th MonaGo GranU Prix
657
00:26:43,724 --> 00:26:47,004
he was just out there to
show he, Ni9el Mansell , was
658
00:26:47,404 --> 00:26:48,644
the quiGkest guy on the planet.
659
00:26:48,764 --> 00:26:50,924
CHAN DHOK:
He PasseU Prost on Iap nine
660
00:26:51,004 --> 00:26:53,724
anU really starteU Uisappearin9
off into the UistanGe.
661
00:26:53,804 --> 00:26:55,004
The raGe was unUer oontroI
662
00:26:55,084 --> 00:26:56,844
oUviously in very
treaGherous oonUitions
663
00:26:57,444 --> 00:26:59,764
anU then he went and droppeU it
into the Uarriers.
664
00:27:02,724 --> 00:27:04,484
AnU I think
where Nigel went wrong
665
00:27:04,964 --> 00:27:07,724
his immeUiate quote
at the enU ot the raoe was
666
00:27:07,804 --> 00:27:09,004
" I went on the white Iines
667
00:27:09,084 --> 00:27:11,044
anU the painteU white Iines
are very slippery. "
668
00:27:11,124 --> 00:27:12,924
AnU of oourse
the press haU a fielU Uay.
669
00:27:13,164 --> 00:27:16,764
A Iot ot exoellent drivers
maUe mistakes anU fell off
670
00:27:16,844 --> 00:27:19,684
anU , you know, I teel , through
no real reason of their own .
671
00:27:19,764 --> 00:27:22,724
An haUitual whinger in terms
ot what the press thought.
672
00:27:22,844 --> 00:27:24,404
You know, it was always
someone else ' s fault
673
00:27:24,484 --> 00:27:25,484
it wasn 't ever his fault.
674
00:27:25,804 --> 00:27:29,804
LeaUing that ohorus of oritiGism
was Peter Warr himself.
675
00:27:30,044 --> 00:27:31,004
MANGELL:
I ' II never forget
676
00:27:31,084 --> 00:27:33,164
Ueoause I just oouldn 't Uelieve
he saiU it puUIioly.
677
00:27:33,244 --> 00:27:35,484
He saiU , "Well , while I have
a hole in my ass
678
00:27:35,564 --> 00:27:37,124
he will never win a raGe. "
679
00:27:37,284 --> 00:27:39,604
What' s that supPoseU to mean ,
for orying out IouU?
680
00:27:39,724 --> 00:27:42,004
As I 've saiU , he must Ue
very oonstipeU now.
681
00:27:42,084 --> 00:27:43,084
H E CH UCKLEG
682
00:27:43,564 --> 00:27:44,724
CHAN DHOK:
By the enU ot ' B4
683
00:27:44,804 --> 00:27:47,084
Nigel really neeUeU
a way out of Lotus
684
00:27:47,164 --> 00:27:50,084
anU partiGularly that toxio
relationship he was taoing
685
00:27:50,164 --> 00:27:51,164
with Peter Warr.
686
00:27:51,244 --> 00:27:52,244
It wasn 't working out
687
00:27:52,324 --> 00:27:54,524
anU he was really, really
Iookin9 for another home
688
00:27:54,604 --> 00:27:56,444
for the next Ghapter
of his oareer.
689
00:27:57,604 --> 00:27:59,324
Around the British
GranU Prix time
690
00:27:59,404 --> 00:28:01,684
I starteU to inundate Prank
with Iots of
691
00:28:01,764 --> 00:28:04,044
"You 've gotta sign Nigel "
oonversations
692
00:28:04,124 --> 00:28:07,324
anU starteU to UaGk it up
with Iots of stats.
693
00:28:07,444 --> 00:28:09,844
Pirst Iap out of the pits,
Iaps on oolU tyres, hot fyres
694
00:28:09,924 --> 00:28:12,004
qualifyinD , oomparin9 it with
all the other Urivers
695
00:28:12,084 --> 00:28:14,844
on the griU , anU he was Pretty
enthusiastiG aUout it.
696
00:28:14,924 --> 00:28:16,164
Of Gourse,
next week woulU Gome
697
00:28:16,244 --> 00:28:17,924
anU nothing woulU happen
anU Nigel ' U rin9 and say
698
00:28:18,004 --> 00:28:19,044
"What' s going on? "
699
00:28:19,124 --> 00:28:21,204
" No news, no news. "
AnU so it Ura99ed on and on .
700
00:28:21,804 --> 00:28:25,844
We 9ot to the Dutoh GranU Prix
anU I rememUer saying to NigeI
701
00:28:26,124 --> 00:28:27,764
" Prank' s gonna 9ive us
an answer. "
702
00:28:27,844 --> 00:28:30,324
AnU I aGtually got
a Iittle Uit trustrateU
703
00:28:30,404 --> 00:28:32,844
with the oonversion .
704
00:28:32,924 --> 00:28:35,404
You either want someone
to Urive tor you or you Uon 't.
705
00:28:35,484 --> 00:28:36,644
Nigel just went Uallistio
706
00:28:36,724 --> 00:28:38,884
anU saiU , " Right,
tell Frank the Ueal is off.
707
00:28:38,964 --> 00:28:40,284
I Uon 't want
to Urive for anyboUy
708
00:28:40,364 --> 00:28:42,124
that Uoesn 't want me
anU oan 't make up their mind .
709
00:28:42,204 --> 00:28:43,764
Just go and tell him that now. "
710
00:28:43,844 --> 00:28:44,804
Go I UiU .
711
00:28:44,884 --> 00:28:46,724
I went UaGk
to Frank's Iittle motorhome.
712
00:28:46,804 --> 00:28:48,404
I saiU , " Look, Prank,
you ' re not 9onna Iike this
713
00:28:48,484 --> 00:28:50,004
this is what Ni9el ' s just saiU . "
714
00:28:50,084 --> 00:28:52,044
He said , "AIri9ht, tell him
he ' s 9ot the Ueal . "
715
00:28:52,124 --> 00:28:54,284
Just Iike that.
It was inGreUible.
716
00:28:54,364 --> 00:28:56,564
AnU I enUeU up Uriving
for Williams
717
00:28:56,644 --> 00:28:58,684
in ' B5 with Keke,
whioh was marvellous.
718
00:29:05,804 --> 00:29:07,844
ENG I N E REVS
719
00:29:09,084 --> 00:29:11,924
WI N DSOR: The start of ' B5 ,
there ' s no UouUt Nigel was
720
00:29:12,004 --> 00:29:14,524
the numUer two
in every dimension
721
00:29:14,964 --> 00:29:18,484
purely Ueoause Keke RosUer9
was a 9ranU Prix winner.
722
00:29:18,764 --> 00:29:22,644
He was known as " Roo" , he was
really quiok, 9reat oar Gontrol .
723
00:29:22,764 --> 00:29:24,524
I haU a very unoomfortaUIe
pressure
724
00:29:24,604 --> 00:29:25,844
initially with Williams.
725
00:29:26,164 --> 00:29:29,364
The UaU UIooU was tolU to Keke
726
00:29:29,444 --> 00:29:32,444
anU other people within
the Williams team aUout me.
727
00:29:32,524 --> 00:29:35,084
Ni9el was this En9Iish 9uy
728
00:29:35,164 --> 00:29:36,924
prone to errors of the,
you know...
729
00:29:37,004 --> 00:29:38,524
the Monaoo ' B4
730
00:29:38,684 --> 00:29:40,404
anU there was this sort ot
aura aUout NigeI
731
00:29:40,484 --> 00:29:42,724
as, you know, why have
Williams si9neU him , really?
732
00:29:42,804 --> 00:29:43,804
AnU I ' m sure Keke...
733
00:29:43,884 --> 00:29:46,004
he Uidn 't feel Ni9el
was a threat I Uon 't think.
734
00:29:46,084 --> 00:29:47,004
Without a win
735
00:29:47,084 --> 00:29:49,644
anU you ' re alongside
a worlU ohampion
736
00:29:50,004 --> 00:29:51,324
there is an exPeGtation
737
00:29:51,404 --> 00:29:53,084
that one is gonna Ue Uetter
than the other.
738
00:29:54,044 --> 00:29:55,644
MANGELL:
My tirst raGe was in Rio
739
00:29:55,724 --> 00:29:57,644
anU I got punteU off
the first Gorner.
740
00:29:58,244 --> 00:29:59,644
It weren 't too gooU .
741
00:30:00,124 --> 00:30:01,844
SeGonU raoe was in Estoril .
742
00:30:02,644 --> 00:30:04,324
AnU 9oing to the griU ,
it was raining
743
00:30:04,404 --> 00:30:06,164
anU we haU turbo en9ines
744
00:30:06,244 --> 00:30:07,644
whiGh were Iike
an on-off switoh .
745
00:30:07,724 --> 00:30:09,284
Go I 9et halfway rounU
the Gorner
746
00:30:09,364 --> 00:30:11,084
then the power surges.
747
00:30:11,324 --> 00:30:12,804
Anyway, I spun off,
hit the Uarriers
748
00:30:12,884 --> 00:30:14,364
on the warm-up IaP to the 9riU
749
00:30:14,444 --> 00:30:16,484
anU smashed
the front susPension
750
00:30:16,564 --> 00:30:17,524
on the Ieft hanU siUe
751
00:30:17,604 --> 00:30:19,484
anU haU to Iimp UaGk
to the pits.
752
00:30:19,564 --> 00:30:22,004
I ' II never tor9et the numUer
Patriok HeaU Uid on me .
753
00:30:22,084 --> 00:30:24,644
Oh , my goodness me,
he was so upset.
754
00:30:24,724 --> 00:30:26,564
Peter Collins was
the team mana9er.
755
00:30:26,644 --> 00:30:27,884
He saiU , " Look, just
olear your heaU .
756
00:30:27,964 --> 00:30:30,044
Just foGus on Ueing reaUy
to get Uaok in the oar
757
00:30:30,124 --> 00:30:31,364
anU start trom the pit Iane. "
758
00:30:31,444 --> 00:30:34,244
AnU then aUout a third ,
halfway through the raoe
759
00:30:34,444 --> 00:30:37,084
my teammate Keke RosUerD ,
ex-worlU Ghampion
760
00:30:37,524 --> 00:30:39,644
on the first oorner ooming
onto the main straight
761
00:30:39,724 --> 00:30:43,164
he haU a mighfy aGoiUent,
with the identiGal symptoms
762
00:30:43,244 --> 00:30:45,124
that happeneU to me
on the warm-up Iap.
763
00:30:45,364 --> 00:30:47,804
I Urove the whole raoe
tentatively
764
00:30:47,884 --> 00:30:49,964
anU , y' know, makin9 sure
I wasn 't gonna fall off
765
00:30:50,044 --> 00:30:52,244
Uut I Game from Iast to fifth .
766
00:30:52,324 --> 00:30:56,524
From the pit Iane to P5
in the rain
767
00:30:57,124 --> 00:31:00,284
terriUIe visibility,
he ' s in triG the whole raGe
768
00:31:00,804 --> 00:31:02,164
and he ' s passing people.
769
00:31:02,244 --> 00:31:04,364
AnU he said he Iiterally
IisteneU to the engine note
770
00:31:04,444 --> 00:31:05,764
of the oar in front
771
00:31:06,044 --> 00:31:08,044
anU when that engine note
ohanDeU
772
00:31:08,124 --> 00:31:10,284
that was the moment NiDel ,
without seeing anything
773
00:31:10,364 --> 00:31:12,564
just a Uank ot spray,
woulU just move to the right
774
00:31:12,644 --> 00:31:14,284
or the Ieft.
That's how he Uid it.
775
00:31:14,484 --> 00:31:16,804
If ever there was a raoe
where, if he was prone
776
00:31:16,884 --> 00:31:19,404
to mistakes anU if he was
inGapaUIe of winning
777
00:31:19,484 --> 00:31:20,764
in the ri9ht situation
778
00:31:20,844 --> 00:31:23,004
it woulU 've been shown up
that Uay, Uut he UiUn 't.
779
00:31:23,084 --> 00:31:25,004
He Uelivered
Ueautitully on that Uay.
780
00:31:26,484 --> 00:31:28,164
Just Uefore
the British GranU Prix
781
00:31:28,244 --> 00:31:31,764
Keke Game up to me, he says,
" I neeU to aPologise to you . "
782
00:31:31,844 --> 00:31:33,444
GaiU , " I IisteneU
to those idiots
783
00:31:33,524 --> 00:31:35,484
telling me all Uifterent thin9s
aUout you
784
00:31:35,564 --> 00:31:37,764
whioh I know now
is totally untrue. "
785
00:31:37,844 --> 00:31:38,844
AnU he saiU , " I ' m sorry. "
786
00:31:38,924 --> 00:31:41,004
He saiU , " I haU
Pre-oonGeiveU juUgements
787
00:31:41,084 --> 00:31:42,044
whiGh were totally wron9 . "
788
00:31:42,284 --> 00:31:43,724
In Formula 1 , it' s...
789
00:31:43,804 --> 00:31:45,284
oUviously,
it's Uown to the driver
790
00:31:45,364 --> 00:31:46,524
Uut it' s a team sport.
791
00:31:46,604 --> 00:31:48,444
So, you know, the Gar
is very important
792
00:31:48,524 --> 00:31:49,804
the team is very important
793
00:31:50,084 --> 00:31:52,004
anU you neeU
the tull paGkage really, to...
794
00:31:52,084 --> 00:31:53,844
to win your first raoe.
795
00:31:53,924 --> 00:31:55,484
It's a GomUination ot man
anU maohine.
796
00:31:55,564 --> 00:31:57,244
That' s part of why
people Iove it, I think.
797
00:31:57,324 --> 00:32:00,084
AnU the real magio is
when you get a GomUinion
798
00:32:00,164 --> 00:32:01,524
ot a Uriver who ' s on the up
799
00:32:01,604 --> 00:32:03,604
who 's aUIe to make a oar taster.
800
00:32:03,724 --> 00:32:06,044
Throu9h my en9ineering
UaokgrounU
801
00:32:06,124 --> 00:32:09,124
Patriok Head ,
we got on really well .
802
00:32:09,364 --> 00:32:10,644
It was a Ureath ot fresh air.
803
00:32:10,724 --> 00:32:12,444

oausing Rosber9 to spin
821
00:32:54,764 --> 00:32:57,324
anU it Ieft Piquet
with nowhere to 9o.
822
00:32:57,404 --> 00:32:59,044

anU that takes him
out of the raoe.

RosUer9 ' s not haPpy,

whiGh gave Nigel

You have to mana9e the Gar,
Urive the Gar
844
00:33:44,244 --> 00:33:45,684
it' s very physioaI
845
00:33:45,924 --> 00:33:48,124
but the mental siUe of it
is huge.
846
00:33:48,524 --> 00:33:50,444
Every single Gorner,
I was makin9 sure
847
00:33:50,524 --> 00:33:52,004
I was miGro-mana9ing
the Gorners

853
00:34:00,724 --> 00:34:02,004
Counting the Iaps Uown
854
00:34:02,084 --> 00:34:04,604

the 9aP of the Gar
Ghasin9 me Uown
856
00:34:07,524 --> 00:34:08,924
beGause it wasn 't a walkover.
857
00:34:09,004 --> 00:34:11,604
I was only aUout five seoonUs
or so in front.
858
00:34:11,684 --> 00:34:13,964
So I 've never felt

906
00:36:22,764 --> 00:36:25,884
AnU suUUenly, we went
into the GIoseU season thinking
907
00:36:25,964 --> 00:36:28,684
" Hey, you know, this guy
ooulU really take it
908
00:36:28,764 --> 00:36:30,004

WI N DSOR: Keke haU haU an ofter
to go to MGLaren .
910
00:36:43,084 --> 00:36:44,404
The thinking was
911
00:36:44,884 --> 00:36:47,404
Nigel 's pret good ,
Uut is he that gooU?
912
00:36:47,644 --> 00:36:49,924
AnU is he 9onna win us
a worlU ohampionshiP?
913
00:36:50,004 --> 00:36:52,604
So Frank was Gasting
arounU for the ne Uriver.
914
00:36:52,684 --> 00:36:55,204
We need to 9et a proven winner,
we neeU to get Nelson Piquet.
915
00:36:55,284 --> 00:36:57,004
He was a Uouble worlU Ghampion
at that point
916
00:36:57,084 --> 00:36:59,804
and he was Mr Perteot
in every dimension
917
00:36:59,884 --> 00:37:00,884
from Frank's point of view.
918
00:37:01,084 --> 00:37:04,164
He IoveU the Uikes, he IoveU
the girls, he IoveU everything
919
00:37:04,244 --> 00:37:06,764
aUout Nelson ' s oosmopolitan
way of Iife.
920
00:37:07,284 --> 00:37:09,444
He sent me off
to Nelson ' s hotel room

to get the Uraft
agreement signeU .
922
00:37:11,484 --> 00:37:13,924
Just saiU , " Nelson is
the numUer one Uriver. "
923
00:37:14,004 --> 00:37:15,444
I wasn 't exaotly
thrilleU with it
924
00:37:15,524 --> 00:37:17,564
UeGause I knew
Nelson ' s repution .
925
00:37:17,684 --> 00:37:19,884
Hopefully we GoulU work

who ' U won world ohamPionships.
931

933
00:37:31,044 --> 00:37:32,124
Y' know,
that's the way he thought.
934
00:37:32,404 --> 00:37:35,604
The feeling was one of
tremenUous optimism .

956
00:38:26,764 --> 00:38:29,124
AII I saiU was, "Are the brakes
OK on this thing , Frank? "
957
00:38:29,204 --> 00:38:30,644
WhiGh was my way

00:39:52,084 --> 00:39:54,284
Yeah , I mean , we were

991
00:39:54,364 --> 00:39:58,044
anU then the stories Goming out
was how UaU it was.
992
00:39:58,204 --> 00:39:59,964
I think we were all sort of
on tenterhooks
993
00:40:00,044 --> 00:40:02,804
Ueoause Prank was suoh
an inte9ral Part
994

997
00:40:11,284 --> 00:40:12,684
Everyone just olosed ranks
998
00:40:12,764 --> 00:40:14,724
whiGh is what you have to Uo
in aUversi.
999
00:40:14,804 --> 00:40:17,244
Even Nelson anU I
GIoseU GomPIete ranks

00:40:17,324 --> 00:40:19,084
anU for a short perioU of time
1001
00:40:19,164 --> 00:40:21,084
we really worked
well together.

BRADGHAW: The Uetermination
of Ginny Williams
1003
00:40:23,004 --> 00:40:24,364
to keep her husUanU alive...
1004
00:40:24,444 --> 00:40:26,644
I mean , amazin9 IaUy
who fought
1005
00:40:26,724 --> 00:40:28,604
UeGause, you know,
there were People saying
1006
00:40:28,684 --> 00:40:29,844
" No, he won 't survive. "
1007
00:40:29,924 --> 00:40:32,084
But when he reaPpeareU ,
I mean , it was a...
1008
00:40:32,164 --> 00:40:34,084
it was very emotional
for everyUoUy.
1009
00:40:34,204 --> 00:40:35,284
Very emotional .
1010
00:40:38,084 --> 00:40:41,884
Well , I suppose that Uay
was just the inevitaUIe result
1011
00:40:41,964 --> 00:40:43,844
of 27 years of hooli9an Uriving .
1012
00:40:43,924 --> 00:40:46,124
I was IaiU there on the DrounU
while the amUulanGe oame
1013
00:40:46,204 --> 00:40:47,684
it took aUout an hour
to 9et there.
1014
00:40:47,964 --> 00:40:49,004
I GoulUn 't feel very muGh
1015
00:40:49,084 --> 00:40:50,764
exoept my hanUs
and arms were Uurning
1016
00:40:50,844 --> 00:40:52,964
as if I ' U fallen oft a UiGyole
anU got gravel ...
1017
00:40:53,044 --> 00:40:54,844
you know, ripPeU the skin oft.
1018
00:40:55,284 --> 00:40:57,924
Um ,
Uut over the next few months
1019
00:40:58,004 --> 00:41:00,284
one realised that, you know,
you ' re not 9onna walk again
1020
00:41:00,364 --> 00:41:01,604
anU that was rather a shame.
1021
00:41:03,964 --> 00:41:06,244
REPORTER:
Frank Wllliams is quadriplegic.
1022
00:41:06,724 --> 00:41:08,844
From his shoulders down,
he has no control
1023
00:41:08,924 --> 00:41:11,004
over the functions
ofhls own body.
1024
00:41:11,524 --> 00:41:14,364
The intrlcate wiring ofhis
nervous system is snapped
1025
00:41:14,604 --> 00:41:17,804
Ieaving the movlng parts as dead
as a broken machine.
1026
00:41:17,884 --> 00:41:20,724
One of his first reaGtions
was to sort ot ourse anU swear
1027
00:41:20,804 --> 00:41:23,004
and say, " I hope this isn 't
gonna mean th I ' m not Donna
1028
00:41:23,084 --> 00:41:24,124

Grand Prix. "
1029

the 1 9BG season with a win
1030
00:41:31,204 --> 00:41:32,484
on home 9round in Rio.
1031
00:41:36,044 --> 00:41:37,444
The seGonU rounU in Gpain
1032
00:41:37,524 --> 00:41:40,084
Nigel and Ayrton were
wheel-to-wheeI
1033
00:41:40,164 --> 00:41:43,204
reoorUing the seoond olosest
tinish in P1 history
1034
00:41:43,404 --> 00:41:45,484
Uut Nigel just got Ueaten
on that day.
1035
00:41:45,884 --> 00:41:47,764
It was so olose,
I think they should give us...
1036
00:41:47,844 --> 00:41:50,444
They shoulU 9ive us
seven anU a half points eaoh .
1037
00:41:50,524 --> 00:41:53,484
The oanny AIain Prost
then took Uaok-to-Uaok viGtories
1038
00:41:53,564 --> 00:41:55,324
at Emilia anU Monaoo
1039
00:41:55,684 --> 00:41:57,084
anU as the reigning
WorlU ChamPion
1040
00:41:57,164 --> 00:41:59,844
he then Urove himself
ri9ht to the forefront
1041
00:42:00,004 --> 00:42:01,244
of the ' B6 title Uattle.
1042
00:42:01,324 --> 00:42:03,404
RI DER: Ni9el really had to
di9 Ueep to make sure
1043
00:42:03,484 --> 00:42:05,404
that he remaineU within ran9e
1044
00:42:05,484 --> 00:42:08,444
anU my goodness, Uuring
the miU-part ot that season
1045
00:42:08,524 --> 00:42:10,644
he put together
a string of results
1046
00:42:10,964 --> 00:42:12,924
whiGh ohangeU the oourse
of the ohampionshiP.
1047
00:42:16,884 --> 00:42:18,324
I ' m sorry it took so Iong , Frank
1048
00:42:18,404 --> 00:42:20,684
Uut we 've GraGked it
this year already.
1049
00:42:29,804 --> 00:42:32,404
The relationship with Nigel anU
Nelson Uroke Uown very quiokly.
1050
00:42:32,604 --> 00:42:35,884
Nelson telt that, as numUer one
1051
00:42:35,964 --> 00:42:38,564
he shoulUn 't Ue trouUIeU
Uy the other Gar at any sta9e.
1052
00:42:38,724 --> 00:42:41,084
I was winnin9 raGes
anU told to slow Uown
1053
00:42:41,364 --> 00:42:43,324
or I was Gohin9 up
with the Ieader
1054
00:42:43,404 --> 00:42:46,044
anU tolU to slow Uown ,
save the status quo.
1055
00:42:46,924 --> 00:42:49,644
What aUout those times my raUio
UiUn 't funGtion very well?
1056
00:42:49,724 --> 00:42:51,404
You know, if you ' re raoing ,
you ' re raoin9 .
1057
00:42:51,844 --> 00:42:53,924
Memo-wise, I shoulU
never Ue quiGker than him
1058
00:42:54,004 --> 00:42:55,124
anU I shoulU never beat him
1059
00:42:55,204 --> 00:42:56,524
but I UiUn 't 9et the memo.
1060
00:42:58,244 --> 00:43:01,004
He put to9ether a run
of tour wins in five raoes.
1061
00:43:01,084 --> 00:43:03,244
The most imPortant
anU the most emotionaI
1062
00:43:03,324 --> 00:43:05,324
was the British GranU Prix win
at Brands Hatoh
1063
00:43:05,404 --> 00:43:08,084
Ueating Piquet,
anU Ueating Piquet well .
1064
00:43:12,284 --> 00:43:14,084
AdUing to the emotion
at Brands Hatoh
1065
00:43:14,164 --> 00:43:15,764
was the appearanoe
in the pit Iane
1066
00:43:15,844 --> 00:43:17,844
of Prank Williams
in his wheelGhair.
1067
00:43:17,924 --> 00:43:19,844
A few months earlier,

anU his team spearheaUing
the WorlU Championship raGe
1071
00:43:27,284 --> 00:43:28,644
one of the great moments.

I mean , it was
truly a golUen era.
1089
00:44:08,004 --> 00:44:09,924
It's just unUelievable
to think Uaok
1090
00:44:10,004 --> 00:44:13,044
that the former offiGe oleaner
from Hall Green in Birmingham

00:45:25,084 --> 00:45:26,124
from Nlgel Mansell.
1125
00:45:26,204 --> 00:45:28,484
Senna goes through to second
place ahead of Piquet.
1126
00:45:32,164 --> 00:45:35,364
The raGe was going to plan .
Ni9el was 9onna win .
1127
00:45:35,684 --> 00:45:37,764
You know,
it was all going so welI
1128
00:45:38,204 --> 00:45:40,204
anU then of Gourse,
it all unravelled .
1129
00:45:40,284 --> 00:45:42,804
In a raGe, you ' re never
Gounting any ohiokens.
1130
00:45:42,884 --> 00:45:44,684
You know, you know
anythin9 Gan happen .
1131
00:45:46,924 --> 00:45:49,084
WI NDGOR:
Tyres were a Ui9 issue then
1132
00:45:49,164 --> 00:45:50,524
partioularly on a GirGuit
Iike AUelaide.
1133
00:45:50,604 --> 00:45:53,884
There ' s a Iot of heat anU IoaU
9oing throu9h the rear tyres
1134
00:45:53,964 --> 00:45:55,444
Partioularly unUer traotion .
1135
00:45:55,804 --> 00:45:58,004
Having said that,
in those Uays
1136
00:45:58,084 --> 00:46:00,764
a Pitstop was always
a slightly risky thin9 .
1137
00:46:00,844 --> 00:46:02,684
You just want everything
to go smoothly.
1138
00:46:02,844 --> 00:46:05,244
You Uon 't want to 9o
into the pits
1139
00:46:05,324 --> 00:46:07,484
anU worry aUout
a wheel not going on
1140
00:46:07,564 --> 00:46:09,444
or a Gross-threaUeU
wheel nut
1141
00:46:09,884 --> 00:46:11,084
oos then your raGe is over.
1142
00:46:11,164 --> 00:46:13,404
They IookeU at the res though
and said , "They Iook good . "
1143
00:46:13,484 --> 00:46:14,364
Y' know, they Iook fine
1144
00:46:14,444 --> 00:46:16,804
so Nigel Uoesn 't neeU
to oome in for a tyre ohange.
1145
00:46:16,884 --> 00:46:17,844
So he just GruiseU arounU .
1146
00:46:17,924 --> 00:46:19,684
He was in an easy position
1147
00:46:19,764 --> 00:46:21,164
anU he was 9onna Ue
WorlU ChamPion
1148
00:46:21,244 --> 00:46:23,484
until that fateful strai9ht.
1149
00:46:24,404 --> 00:46:26,284
EXPLOSION
- WALKER: And Iook at thatl
1150
00:46:26,364 --> 00:46:28,964
Oh, that. . . and colossally,
that's Mansell!
1151
00:46:29,044 --> 00:46:30,764
That is Nigel Mansell!
1152
00:46:40,924 --> 00:46:43,764
We ' re watGhing that Iong shot
ot him Goming Uown the strai9ht
1153
00:46:43,844 --> 00:46:45,444
anU then suUUenly
all hell Iets Ioose
1154
00:46:45,524 --> 00:46:47,044
anU we just
were goUsmaokeU .
1155
00:46:47,124 --> 00:46:49,044
You know. . .
it all was Iookin9 so 9ooU .
1156
00:46:49,124 --> 00:46:51,364
I think it was also,
it was so speotaGular
1157
00:46:51,804 --> 00:46:54,644
seein9 the sparks
anU the wheel .
1158
00:46:55,684 --> 00:46:58,644
I Gan still , in my minU ' s eye,
see the oar
1159
00:46:58,804 --> 00:47:00,924
anU see the re
and see the sparks.
1160
00:47:01,164 --> 00:47:03,284
They Urou9ht Piquet
into the Pit
1161
00:47:03,364 --> 00:47:05,724
so that sGuppereU his world
Ghampionship GhanGe as well .
1162
00:47:05,804 --> 00:47:08,444
AIain Prost was
the worlU Ghampion .
1163
00:47:10,164 --> 00:47:12,044
MANSELL: When you feel
Iike you ' re in oontroI
1164
00:47:12,124 --> 00:47:14,044
shit hits the fan ,
it normally Uoes.
1165
00:47:14,444 --> 00:47:16,164
But that one was just
out of the UIue .
1166
00:47:16,244 --> 00:47:17,564
EveryUody Ueats themselves up.
1167
00:47:17,644 --> 00:47:19,204
If it GoulU 've Ueen avoiUeU ...
1168
00:47:19,284 --> 00:47:21,084
we GoulU 've Put him
on some new res.
1169
00:47:21,284 --> 00:47:22,324
The only thin9 I reDret
1170
00:47:22,404 --> 00:47:25,044
I shoulU 've Uroken a Gouple
of Iegs anU 9one in the walI
1171
00:47:25,124 --> 00:47:26,724
and woulU 've Ueen
WorlU Champion , y' know.
1172
00:47:26,804 --> 00:47:27,644
It' U have Ueen worth it.
1173
00:47:27,724 --> 00:47:30,564
If he diUn 't hang onto it
at 2OO miles an hour
1174
00:47:30,684 --> 00:47:32,044
anU take it Uown
the esGaPe roaU
1175
00:47:32,124 --> 00:47:33,764
he would have
Put it into the walI
1176
00:47:33,844 --> 00:47:35,204
they proUaUIy woulU 've
reU-flaggeU it
1177
00:47:35,284 --> 00:47:37,204
Gos the oar woulU 've Ueen
in the midUIe ot the oirouit.
1178
00:47:37,284 --> 00:47:38,524
They woulU 've taken it
UaGk a raoe
1179
00:47:38,604 --> 00:47:40,324
anU he would 've won
the World Championship.
1180
00:47:40,404 --> 00:47:41,524
But he Uid the ri9ht thin9 .
1181
00:47:41,604 --> 00:47:44,644
Just in that one moment,
you oan see how 9ooU Nigel is.
1182
00:47:44,724 --> 00:47:46,444
Every oorreGtion
he makes to the wheeI
1183
00:47:46,524 --> 00:47:47,844
is aUsolutely perfeGt.
1184
00:47:47,924 --> 00:47:49,764
There ' s no over-Gorreotion
at any stage.
1185
00:47:49,844 --> 00:47:51,844
He ' s only 9ot one tyre
on the UaGk of the Gar
1186
00:47:51,924 --> 00:47:53,044
anU he 's flat out.
1187
00:47:53,404 --> 00:47:55,924
AnU that was it,
ohamPionship to Prost.
1188
00:47:56,004 --> 00:47:57,404
I ' m sure Piquet was deli9hteU .
1189
00:47:57,484 --> 00:48:00,284
For us, it was just
Iike the worst triP home
1190
00:48:00,364 --> 00:48:01,924
that I 've ever had .
1191
00:48:02,404 --> 00:48:03,364
No, I Uon 't...
1192
00:48:03,444 --> 00:48:05,724
I think he hightaileU it away.
1193
00:48:06,164 --> 00:48:08,524
I Uon 't rememUer even speaking
to anyUoUy who ' U seen him
1194
00:48:08,604 --> 00:48:10,684
UeGause obviously he woulU 've
Ueen Uistraught.
1195
00:48:10,804 --> 00:48:13,444
Must've Ueen Uevastatin9 ,
and I Gan 't imagine
1196
00:48:13,884 --> 00:48:15,444
what went through his head .
1197
00:48:15,604 --> 00:48:16,844
You GoulUn 't breathe.
1198
00:48:16,924 --> 00:48:18,604
I ooulUn 't Ureathe. I mean ...
1199
00:48:18,684 --> 00:48:20,964
you Gome that olose, anU ...
1200
00:48:21,084 --> 00:48:24,804
anU to know that you might
never, ever, ever smell it
1201
00:48:24,884 --> 00:48:27,564
or touoh it or taste it
ever again is...
1202
00:48:27,924 --> 00:48:29,764
How Uo you Iive with that
for the rest of your Iife?
1203
00:48:29,844 --> 00:48:31,284
AnU that' s what kept me going .
1204
00:48:32,964 --> 00:48:34,684
I mean , the whole world
haU fallen apart.
1205
00:48:34,764 --> 00:48:36,724
The WorlU ChamPionship had gone.
1206
00:48:37,164 --> 00:48:40,164
It was one of those
iooniG moments
1207
00:48:40,244 --> 00:48:41,924
aDain in motorsport,
you know.
1208
00:48:42,004 --> 00:48:43,564
That' s how you Iose
a WorlU Championship.
1209
00:48:43,684 --> 00:48:45,444
I still sometimes have...
1210
00:48:46,404 --> 00:48:48,444
some sad moments thinking
1211
00:48:49,244 --> 00:48:50,924
how easy anU how olose it was
1212
00:48:51,004 --> 00:48:53,764
and to Iose it in the way
that we UiU was horrenUous.
1213
00:48:53,884 --> 00:48:55,524
But the flipsiUe of th is
1214
00:48:55,764 --> 00:48:57,604
I think that just
GementeU the fans in plaoe
1215
00:48:57,684 --> 00:48:59,444
for the rest of my oareer,
I mean ...
1216
00:48:59,764 --> 00:49:01,644
They Iost
the WorlU Championship too.
1217
00:49:03,484 --> 00:49:05,804
AnU that' s what it telt Iike.
They shareU it.
1218
00:49:06,884 --> 00:49:08,724
And we shareU
everythin9 together.
1219
00:49:09,644 --> 00:49:13,284
AnU the irony is that, you know,
he UeGame a Ui9ger star
1220
00:49:13,364 --> 00:49:15,404
UeGause of what hapPeneU
anU the way it happeneU
1221
00:49:15,484 --> 00:49:17,924
anU perhaps even
if he ' U won , you know.
1222
00:49:18,004 --> 00:49:21,604
It Ueoame part of his story.
His story is Urama.
1223
00:49:21,684 --> 00:49:23,764
So there was no
WorlU Championship tor NigeI
1224
00:49:23,844 --> 00:49:26,484
Uut all the aGoolaUes
Game his way
1225
00:49:26,564 --> 00:49:27,884
over the ne
oouple ot months.
1226
00:49:27,964 --> 00:49:29,684
There were honours of all kinUs
1227
00:49:29,764 --> 00:49:32,044
inoluding one
whioh he always re9arUeU
1228
00:49:32,124 --> 00:49:33,564
as partioularly signitiGant
1229
00:49:33,644 --> 00:49:35,604
and that was the BBC viewers
1230
00:49:35,684 --> 00:49:37,404
anU the television viewers
voting him
1231
00:49:37,484 --> 00:49:39,164
Sports Personali of the Year.
1232
00:49:39,244 --> 00:49:41,564
Everyone in their tens
of thousands
1233
00:49:41,644 --> 00:49:44,124
voteU for the top
sportsman of the year.
1234
00:49:44,844 --> 00:49:46,044
A far Uigger honour
1235
00:49:46,644 --> 00:49:48,964
than winnin9 the Pormula 1
WorlU ChamPionship.
1236
00:49:50,324 --> 00:49:51,844
VOICE BREAKS:
I Iove the fans...
1237
00:49:53,884 --> 00:49:55,804
anU they kept me going .
H E CH UCKLEG
1238
00:49:56,484 --> 00:49:57,564
BIess ' em .
1239
00:49:58,524 --> 00:50:00,764
You ' II have to forgive me,
you 9et a bit...
1240
00:50:00,844 --> 00:50:01,924
It' s. . . it' s the pollen .
1241
00:50:02,004 --> 00:50:03,644
It's the pollen ,
that' s what it is.
1242
00:50:19,924 --> 00:50:25,284
That turbo Gar from 1 9B7
was the peak of the turUo era.
1243
00:50:25,524 --> 00:50:26,924
They GoulUn 't even measure
1244
00:50:27,004 --> 00:50:29,084
the amount ot horsepower
it was proUuoing .
1245
00:50:29,164 --> 00:50:31,404
AnU the Williams HonUa FW11 B
1246
00:50:31,484 --> 00:50:33,684
was the Ui9Dest
monster of them all .
1247
00:50:33,844 --> 00:50:36,044
BRADSHAW: It was the best Gar
out on the traok.
1248
00:50:36,124 --> 00:50:38,164
It was gonna Gome down
to a Uattle
1249
00:50:38,244 --> 00:50:39,364
Uetween the two Urivers.
1250
00:50:39,644 --> 00:50:42,164
Nigel and Nelson ...
1251
00:50:42,524 --> 00:50:44,564
they haU not 9ot a relationship.
1252
00:50:44,684 --> 00:50:47,164
They were, wh we ' U say,
traUing UIows, weren 't they?
1253
00:50:47,524 --> 00:50:50,284
I ooulU sense anU see
there was a Uivision haPpening
1254
00:50:50,364 --> 00:50:53,324
in the team ,
Uut I just Put that Uown
1255
00:50:53,404 --> 00:50:55,724
you know, Nelson
was a multiple WorlU Champion .
1256
00:50:55,804 --> 00:50:56,844
When you haven 't won one
1257
00:50:56,924 --> 00:50:59,084
that' s where you really are
at a UisaUvanta9e.
1258
00:50:59,164 --> 00:51:01,564
He was Uein9 put unUer sorutiny.
1259
00:51:01,644 --> 00:51:04,044
Uh . . . you oannot say
a Uetter Uriver, worse Uriver
1260
00:51:04,124 --> 00:51:07,164
Ueoause I Gan say
I win two Ghampionships
1261
00:51:07,244 --> 00:51:08,684
anU NiDel Iost one.
1262
00:51:10,484 --> 00:51:12,164
Teammates in Pormula 1 ...
1263
00:51:13,324 --> 00:51:14,364
Yeah .
1264
00:51:14,924 --> 00:51:16,084
" Mates" ...
1265
00:51:16,644 --> 00:51:18,164
Uoesn 't really work,
I Uon 't think.
1266
00:51:18,244 --> 00:51:20,044
There 's always
an atmosphere in a team
1267
00:51:20,124 --> 00:51:21,764
espeoially if you ' re
fighting for wins
1268
00:51:21,844 --> 00:51:24,644
and Nigel anU Nelson
Uefinitely haU that.
1269
00:51:24,884 --> 00:51:26,764
Nelson Piquet, Ueep Uown
1270
00:51:26,844 --> 00:51:28,484
there was a kinU of...
1271
00:51:29,164 --> 00:51:30,924
vioiousness,
anU a poison to him .
1272
00:51:31,284 --> 00:51:35,044
He was ni9gly, he was Gombative,
he was 9ossipy
1273
00:51:35,124 --> 00:51:37,564
anU he was everything th you
Uidn 't want a teammate to Ue.
1274
00:51:37,644 --> 00:51:40,644
When Ni9el Uid start to
Gramp Nelson 's sle
1275
00:51:40,724 --> 00:51:42,004
whether it be in qualifying
1276
00:51:42,084 --> 00:51:43,564
whether it Ue
on the first Iap of a raGe
1277
00:51:43,644 --> 00:51:44,884
whether it be Ueatin9 Nelson
1278
00:51:44,964 --> 00:51:46,884
out-raGing him
from start to finish
1279
00:51:46,964 --> 00:51:48,804
he woulU go
into Prank' s offioe anU say
1280
00:51:48,884 --> 00:51:50,924
"You know, this is riUiGulous,
what is going on?
1281
00:51:51,004 --> 00:51:52,364
I ' m supposed to Ue
numUer one Uriver
1282
00:51:52,444 --> 00:51:53,804
and this guy,
you keep 9iving him
1283
00:51:53,884 --> 00:51:55,324
this and that,
anU he ' s aheaU ot me.
1284
00:51:55,404 --> 00:51:57,364
They must Ue favouring Nigel
with a better oar
1285
00:51:57,444 --> 00:51:59,044
or HonUa must Ue givin9 him
a Uetter en9ine
1286
00:51:59,124 --> 00:52:01,244
or something must Ue going on
to explain this.
1287
00:52:01,324 --> 00:52:02,644
I Uon 't Iike this situation
1288
00:52:02,724 --> 00:52:04,884
anU Ni9el ' s
not good news at all . "
1289
00:52:04,964 --> 00:52:07,524
Nelson was 9onna
use every bit ot ima9ination
1290
00:52:07,604 --> 00:52:11,204
that he oould to try to 9et
insiUe Ni9el ' s heaU
1291
00:52:11,284 --> 00:52:14,764
irritate him , annoy him ,
upset him , Ue him that way.
1292
00:52:15,284 --> 00:52:17,204
MANSELL: I think it was
in Japan on the Uullet train
1293
00:52:17,284 --> 00:52:19,204
one time,
anU I ' U hurt my riUs.
1294
00:52:19,284 --> 00:52:22,724
I think I ' U fraGtureU or oraokeU
some riUs or whatever.
1295
00:52:22,884 --> 00:52:25,564
He kept Poking me
in my ribs on the way.
1296
00:52:26,124 --> 00:52:28,164
AnU I took it for a Iittle while
1297
00:52:28,244 --> 00:52:30,164
anU then er you 've Ueen
tappeU a few times
1298
00:52:30,244 --> 00:52:31,324
I just turneU rounU ...
1299
00:52:31,924 --> 00:52:33,644
I just IookeU him strai9ht
in the eye, I saiU
1300
00:52:33,724 --> 00:52:36,244
"You Uo that one more time ,
I will Iay you out
1301
00:52:36,324 --> 00:52:37,484
Iike there is no tomorrow. "
1302
00:52:37,764 --> 00:52:41,124
Early ' B7,
Nelson UiU an interview
1303
00:52:41,204 --> 00:52:43,404
with PIayboy Brazil
1304
00:52:43,484 --> 00:52:45,604
in whiGh he was askeU
aUout the UifterenGes
1305
00:52:45,684 --> 00:52:47,004
between him and NigeI
1306
00:52:47,364 --> 00:52:48,924
anU his reply was...
1307
00:52:49,044 --> 00:52:50,204
"Well , the main differenoe is
1308
00:52:50,284 --> 00:52:52,364
I always have beautiful
9irlfrienUs anU he has. . . "
1309
00:52:52,444 --> 00:52:54,404
AnU I won 't use the worU here
Uut he was very Uerogatory
1310
00:52:54,484 --> 00:52:55,404
about Roseanne.
1311
00:52:55,484 --> 00:52:57,404
RI DER:
Roseanne is the nioest person
1312
00:52:57,484 --> 00:52:58,484
you oan meet in the worlU .
1313
00:52:58,564 --> 00:53:00,364
Their marriage is the most soliU
1314
00:53:00,444 --> 00:53:03,164
I have ever experienGeU
in any sporting environment.
1315
00:53:03,484 --> 00:53:04,724
The faGt that Piquet telt
1316
00:53:04,804 --> 00:53:06,884
that he neeUeU to Uo
these thin9s I think shows
1317
00:53:06,964 --> 00:53:08,964
to what eent he felt
threateneU Uy NigeI
1318
00:53:09,044 --> 00:53:11,244
Ueoause if Nigel wasn 't a threat
he woulUn 't neeU to do it.
1319
00:53:11,324 --> 00:53:13,964
I think a Iot of people thou9ht
it aGtually diminisheU Piquet.
1320
00:53:14,044 --> 00:53:15,764
He hit well Uelow the Uelt
1321
00:53:15,844 --> 00:53:18,244
anU again , Uut that just
showeU up his oharaGter
1322
00:53:18,364 --> 00:53:19,804
to say and do those thin9s.
1323
00:53:19,924 --> 00:53:23,724
I Uon 't think that speaks great
volumes aUout yourself, Uoes it?
1324
00:53:24,044 --> 00:53:25,724
And of Gourse,
when that happeneU
1325
00:53:25,804 --> 00:53:27,564
from that moment onwards
1326
00:53:27,644 --> 00:53:30,164
he was a markeU man
so far as Nigel was GonGerneU .
1327
00:53:30,244 --> 00:53:32,404
Whatever Nelson is,
anU he ' s an iUiot
1328
00:53:32,844 --> 00:53:34,364
Uut he ' s a gre Uriver
1329
00:53:34,444 --> 00:53:36,964
anU I haU to hang it out there
to even oompete
1330
00:53:37,044 --> 00:53:39,564
as a numUer two
to the numUer one.
1331
00:53:39,964 --> 00:53:42,124
Well , Ni9el is a true raoer
1332
00:53:42,204 --> 00:53:44,804
and when the Iights Do 9reen ,
he kinU of gets a Uit reU
1333
00:53:44,964 --> 00:53:47,084
anU has a Iot ot anger in him
anU that' s expressed
1334
00:53:47,164 --> 00:53:49,004
in some really
superlive raGin9 .
1335
00:53:49,084 --> 00:53:51,404
H I LL: Prank Williams,
he thought it was quite funny
1336
00:53:51,484 --> 00:53:53,364
that they were
at eaGh other' s throats
1337
00:53:53,444 --> 00:53:55,524
Gos in his minU ,
if you 've 9ot two Urivers
1338
00:53:55,604 --> 00:53:57,604
who hate eaoh other,
they Do faster.
1339
00:53:57,764 --> 00:53:59,604
What Uo you Uo?
Do you turn rounU anU say
1340
00:53:59,684 --> 00:54:01,844
"You 've gotta Ue niGe to
eaoh other anU work together" ?
1341
00:54:01,924 --> 00:54:05,244
As a team owner,
you oan 't want better.
1342
00:54:05,524 --> 00:54:07,404
You know that at the enU
of a weekend
1343
00:54:07,924 --> 00:54:10,044
it will Ue a Williams oar
that wins
1344
00:54:10,204 --> 00:54:12,884
UeGause your Urivers are
pushing eaoh other so hard .
1345
00:54:12,964 --> 00:54:16,004
Piquet, Uy whatever means,
was getting the uPper hanU
1346
00:54:16,084 --> 00:54:18,644
both in terms of what
haPpeneU on the traok
1347
00:54:18,724 --> 00:54:20,844
anU mayUe what was
happenin9 psyoholoDioally.
1348
00:54:20,924 --> 00:54:23,084
Now, praotioe for the British
Pormula 1 GranU Prix
1349
00:54:23,164 --> 00:54:24,604
at Gilverstone 9ets
unUerway toUay
1350
00:54:24,684 --> 00:54:26,444
anU the foGus of ention
this weekend will Ue
1351
00:54:26,524 --> 00:54:29,804
on Nigel Mansell anU his
Williams teammate Nelson Piquet
1352
00:54:29,884 --> 00:54:32,524
who it seems have not Ueen
the Uest of frienUs.
1353
00:54:32,604 --> 00:54:35,244
The one gre highlight,
ot Gourse, was onGe aDain
1354
00:54:35,324 --> 00:54:36,764
the British GranU Prix
at Gilverstone
1355
00:54:36,844 --> 00:54:38,924
where Nigel built up
1356
00:54:39,564 --> 00:54:42,324
Uuilt up, Uuilt up
to that wonUertul move
1357
00:54:42,404 --> 00:54:44,004
Uown the Uottom
ot the hangar straight.
1358
00:54:44,084 --> 00:54:45,324
The Uummy move.
1359
00:54:45,404 --> 00:54:46,964
I rememUer it
in the karting Uays.
1360
00:54:47,044 --> 00:54:48,724
PretenUin9 you ' re Doing
to the Ieft
1361
00:54:48,804 --> 00:54:51,404
anU then they slightly move
that direotion
1362
00:54:51,484 --> 00:54:53,764
to Gover you anU you ohange
UireGtion immeUiately
1363
00:54:53,844 --> 00:54:55,044
and throw it Uown the insiUe.
1364
00:55:00,564 --> 00:55:02,324
H I LL:
They were so GIose to touGhin9
1365
00:55:02,404 --> 00:55:05,164
and what I reGall ,
a pretty hairy overtake
1366
00:55:05,324 --> 00:55:06,684
Uut olassiG Ni9el Mansell .
1367
00:55:06,764 --> 00:55:10,084
He was a Uruiser anU woulU Uo
anything to suGoeeU
1368
00:55:10,164 --> 00:55:12,044
Uut Nelson gave him
no room whatsoever.
1369
00:55:12,124 --> 00:55:13,724
BRADGHAW:
They' re the best overtakes
1370
00:55:13,804 --> 00:55:16,524
oos that was on your teammate
in the same oar
1371
00:55:17,084 --> 00:55:19,604
anU Williams UiU 9ive
Uoth Urivers the same equipment.
1372
00:55:19,684 --> 00:55:21,404
They never messeU arounU
Iike that.
1373
00:55:23,124 --> 00:55:25,484
CHANDHOK: I think that was
aotually the tirst proper
1374
00:55:25,564 --> 00:55:26,924
traok invasion we ' U seen .
1375
00:55:27,044 --> 00:55:30,044
It was also the start,
I think, of Mansell-mania.
1376
00:55:30,284 --> 00:55:31,684
If you ' re 9onna have
a home raGe
1377
00:55:31,764 --> 00:55:33,364
that' s the olosest
you oan 9et to Birmingham .
1378
00:55:33,604 --> 00:55:35,964
Go Silverstone
is Nigel ' s UaoarU .
1379
00:55:36,084 --> 00:55:37,684
CROWD CH EERG
1380
00:55:37,764 --> 00:55:39,804
There were suUUenly
peoPIe Goming to the raGes
1381
00:55:39,884 --> 00:55:42,564
that weren 't neGessarily
Formula 1 fans
1382
00:55:42,644 --> 00:55:43,684
they were Mansell fans.
1383
00:55:43,764 --> 00:55:45,724
They wanteU their man Nigel .
1384
00:55:45,804 --> 00:55:47,924
There was a worry I think
in the sport th Ni9eI
1385
00:55:48,004 --> 00:55:49,244
was sort of attraotinD
the wrong
1386
00:55:49,324 --> 00:55:50,484
sort of tans.
HE LAUG HS

00:55:53,604 --> 00:55:54,764

I mean , the UullUo9 spirit.
1391
00:55:58,964 --> 00:56:00,764
People were able
to 9et behinU the team

00:56:00,844 --> 00:56:02,004
anU really telt part of it
1393
00:56:02,084 --> 00:56:03,564
anU when he won ,
it felt Iike they' U won .
1394
00:56:03,644 --> 00:56:05,684
ALLEN : They GoulU see
that Nigel was a real person
1395
00:56:05,764 --> 00:56:08,684
that he ' U haU a Iite Uefore
he beGame a 9ranU prix Uriver.
1396
00:56:08,764 --> 00:56:10,524
He wasn 't the proUuGt
of some aoaUemy
1397
00:56:10,604 --> 00:56:12,724
that haU taken him from kartin9
straight throu9h

00:56:12,804 --> 00:56:14,324
seamlessly into Formula 1
1399
00:56:14,404 --> 00:56:16,604
without ever having to Uo
a Uay' s work in his Iite
1400
00:56:16,684 --> 00:56:18,044
or get his hanUs dirty.
1401
00:56:18,124 --> 00:56:19,444
He was one of them , really.

00:58:11,764 --> 00:58:13,564
He was in so muoh agony.
1443
00:58:13,684 --> 00:58:16,924
It was pretty obvious th Ni9el
was not gonna raGe the next day.
1444
00:58:17,524 --> 00:58:20,244
So oUviously th haU
hanUeU the ohampionship
1445
00:58:20,324 --> 00:58:22,644
to Nelson there anU then .
1446
00:58:22,724 --> 00:58:23,764
He went off Uy heliGoPter
1447
00:58:23,844 --> 00:58:26,124
anU that was efteotively
the Ghampionship over
1448
00:58:26,204 --> 00:58:27,284
anU it gave it to Nelson .
1449
00:58:28,324 --> 00:58:30,204
BRADGHAW: You know,
there was no roisterinD
1450
00:58:30,284 --> 00:58:32,004
GeleUrating ,
Nelson UiUn 't Uo that.
1451
00:58:32,084 --> 00:58:33,804
NoboUy UiU that,
oos he ' U got the ohampionshiP
1452
00:58:33,884 --> 00:58:35,924
Uut not the way
anyboUy wanteU it to enU .
1453
00:58:36,124 --> 00:58:37,604
It was an anti-GIim.
1454
00:58:43,004 --> 00:58:45,004
PRATTLEY: We still won
the ConstruGtors' Championship.
1455
00:58:45,084 --> 00:58:47,044
It was a Uit of a mixeU emotion .
1456
00:58:47,484 --> 00:58:49,964
I was Ue9innin9 to wonUer
whether Nigel was...
1457
00:58:50,364 --> 00:58:51,964
"jinxeU " , shall we say.
1458
00:58:52,204 --> 00:58:54,364
AnU onoe again
the Ghorus starteU
1459
00:58:54,644 --> 00:58:56,404
" It ain 't gonna haPpen
for Ni9el . "
1460
00:58:56,844 --> 00:58:58,484
You know, I watoheU
a oouple ot peoPIe Uie
1461
00:58:58,564 --> 00:59:01,564
in intensive oare
over the time I was there.
1462
00:59:01,844 --> 00:59:03,324
AnU then I thought
in all hones
1463
00:59:03,404 --> 00:59:04,404
I ' U never raGe again .
1464
00:59:04,484 --> 00:59:05,764
When you ' re hurt so UaUIy
1465
00:59:05,844 --> 00:59:07,284
anU you think you ' re
never 9onna walk a9ain
1466
00:59:07,364 --> 00:59:08,404
it Uoesn 't really matter.
1467
00:59:08,484 --> 00:59:10,564
My foGus wasn 't
aUout raGin9 then .
1468
00:59:10,764 --> 00:59:12,404
It was aUout, you know...
1469
00:59:12,684 --> 00:59:15,004
having my ohilUren GIimU
on the UeU
1470
00:59:15,084 --> 00:59:18,084
anU Uon 't understand why DaU
oan 't oome out of beU .
1471
00:59:18,164 --> 00:59:20,124
I think the raoe
was in aUout NovemUer
1472
00:59:20,204 --> 00:59:23,284
anU feelin9s in my Iegs
never oame UaGk till ...
1473
00:59:23,724 --> 00:59:26,084
starteU to Gome baok
in January, February I think.
1474
00:59:26,444 --> 00:59:29,324
The enU of 1 9B7
was Pretty awful for Nigel .
1475
00:59:29,404 --> 00:59:32,404
He was Iying in a JaPanese
hosPital with a Uroken baok.
1476
00:59:32,644 --> 00:59:34,764
He ' U Iost the WorlU Championship
to Nelson
1477
00:59:34,844 --> 00:59:37,684
anU then Piquet haU taken
the HonUa engines with him
1478
00:59:37,764 --> 00:59:39,444
anU Ieft Williams tor Lotus.
1479
00:59:42,924 --> 00:59:44,684
REPORTER:
ese are the FW11s
1480
00:59:44,764 --> 00:59:46,444
which took the team
and their sponsors
1481
00:59:46,524 --> 00:59:49,484
to absolute victory in 19B7.
1482
00:59:49,564 --> 00:59:50,644
The problem is
1483
00:59:50,724 --> 00:59:53,764
these $1O million technologlcal
masterpieces
1484
00:59:54,004 --> 00:59:55,204
are antiques
1485
00:59:55,284 --> 00:59:57,684
more useless
than a pre-war Mercedes
1486
00:59:57,764 --> 00:59:59,804
because Honda won 't even
Iet IIiams
1487
00:59:59,884 --> 01:00:01,404
keep lastyear's englnes.
1488
01:00:01,484 --> 01:00:04,564
Williams were Uaok in the paGk
for the 1 9BB season .
1489
01:00:04,644 --> 01:00:06,364
It seemeU
to unUerline even more
1490
01:00:06,444 --> 01:00:09,964
the taot that Nigel ' s Uig ohanGe
haU gone.
1491
01:00:10,644 --> 01:00:12,524
Ni9el Mansell is Ieavin9
the Williams team
1492
01:00:12,604 --> 01:00:14,804
for Ferrari next year in a Ueal
rumoureU to Ue worth
1493
01:00:14,884 --> 01:00:17,524
arounU £4 million to Mansell .
1494
01:00:17,604 --> 01:00:21,164
Nigel was the Iast Uriver
to Ue personally si9neU
1495
01:00:21,244 --> 01:00:22,404
by Enzo Ferrari
1496
01:00:22,484 --> 01:00:24,164
anU that' s quite
a si9nitioant thing
1497
01:00:24,244 --> 01:00:25,964
it' s something Ni9el himself
is very prouU of.
1498
01:00:26,044 --> 01:00:28,364
"The prophet is never
reoogniseU in his own oountry"
1499
01:00:28,444 --> 01:00:29,964
is an interesting phrase,
isn 't it?
1500
01:00:30,044 --> 01:00:31,684
When he went
anU raGed tor Perrari
1501
01:00:31,764 --> 01:00:33,924
they just saw
what he UiU in a raoing oar
1502
01:00:34,044 --> 01:00:36,924
and what he Uid in a raoing Gar
gave him the name
1503
01:00:37,004 --> 01:00:38,324
" II Leone"
1504
01:00:38,404 --> 01:00:40,644
and that's the way
to Iook at Nigel Mansell .
1505
01:00:40,724 --> 01:00:42,964
He was a Iion in a oar.
1506
01:00:43,084 --> 01:00:46,124
RI DER: He UelivereU
some Ueoent results for them
1507
01:00:46,204 --> 01:00:48,524
anU then Game
all the politioal maohinations
1508
01:00:48,604 --> 01:00:49,524
that proveU his undoing .
1509
01:00:49,604 --> 01:00:52,044
ALLEN : Prost tell out
with Senna at MoLaren
1510
01:00:52,124 --> 01:00:53,124
neeUeU to 9et out of there.
1511
01:00:53,204 --> 01:00:55,124
Ferrari haU the opportuni
to Uring him in .
1512
01:00:55,204 --> 01:00:57,644
AnU even though Nigel haU
been there Ion9er than Prost
1513
01:00:57,804 --> 01:00:59,244
Prost very quiGkly workeU out
1514
01:00:59,324 --> 01:01:01,244
whioh were the Ievers
you needeU to pull .
1515
01:01:01,324 --> 01:01:03,164
And that situion , of Gourse,
all oame to a heaU
1516
01:01:03,244 --> 01:01:04,284
at the British GranU Prix.
1517
01:01:05,524 --> 01:01:07,084
MANGELL:
I got there and I 9ot in my Gar
1518
01:01:07,164 --> 01:01:09,564
UeGause we haU qualifyin9
Gars and raGe oars.
1519
01:01:10,604 --> 01:01:12,124
AnU I sat in the oar
1520
01:01:12,324 --> 01:01:14,244
anU I got in , it' s just Iike
putting a pair of pants
1521
01:01:14,324 --> 01:01:16,444
anU your trousers on ,
it UiUn 't tit properly.
1522
01:01:16,524 --> 01:01:18,524
This is not my Gar,
wh the hell ' s goin9 on?
1523
01:01:19,324 --> 01:01:21,044
So I went to
the team manager, I saiU
1524
01:01:21,124 --> 01:01:22,764
" Look, y' know,
you 've swappeU oars on me.
1525
01:01:22,844 --> 01:01:25,284
What the hell 's going on? "
They haU to aUmit that they...
1526
01:01:25,364 --> 01:01:27,924
AIain saiU , " I wanteU
NiDel ' s qualifyin9 oar"
1527
01:01:28,004 --> 01:01:30,324
UeGause I ' U out-qualifieU him
the week Uetore everything else.
1528
01:01:30,524 --> 01:01:31,964
If they' U have
just tolU me the truth
1529
01:01:32,044 --> 01:01:33,204
I woulUn 't have got upset.
1530
01:01:33,684 --> 01:01:36,084
But they UiUn 't, I haU
to squeeze it out of them .
1531
01:01:36,644 --> 01:01:39,924
Go we went out anU I qualifieU
in his oar, 9ot Pole position
1532
01:01:40,044 --> 01:01:42,124
anU saiU , "Whioh Gar you 9onna
have for the raGe now? "
1533
01:01:42,524 --> 01:01:43,964
CHAN DHOK:
Nigel took pole position
1534
01:01:44,044 --> 01:01:46,284
he was IeaUing the raoe,
Uut onGe a9ain
1535
01:01:46,364 --> 01:01:49,804
his Perrari broke Uown
anU his teammate went on to win .
1536
01:01:50,004 --> 01:01:53,044
ALLEN : AnU so in front ot the
orowU , he throws his 9Ioves.
1537
01:01:53,964 --> 01:01:55,884
The winU went out ot my sails
1538
01:01:56,684 --> 01:01:58,564
anU I knew when
I threw my Ualaolava
1539
01:01:58,644 --> 01:02:01,164
anU I knew when I threw
my gloves over the Copse Corner
1540
01:02:01,244 --> 01:02:03,444
anU I was almost 9onna
throw my helmet as well .
1541
01:02:03,564 --> 01:02:04,684
HE SIG HS
1542
01:02:05,364 --> 01:02:07,404
AII that oommitment,
all the toous
1543
01:02:07,484 --> 01:02:09,684
anU everythin9 else
just went thump...
1544
01:02:10,404 --> 01:02:12,324
anU I saiU , " I ' m Uone. "
1545
01:02:12,564 --> 01:02:14,804
It Uoes make me very saU , Uut...
1546
01:02:15,204 --> 01:02:17,764
I ' m announGing
my retirement toUay.
1547
01:02:18,124 --> 01:02:19,884
AnU retireU . AnU that was it.
1548
01:02:20,124 --> 01:02:21,324
AnU he was oft.
1549
01:02:21,724 --> 01:02:24,124
Y' know, people in shoGk. . .
we all were.
1550
01:02:24,404 --> 01:02:26,124
RI DER: AnU the raoe was still
goin9 on UehinU
1551
01:02:26,204 --> 01:02:28,284
and we were all thinking ,
"What on Earth is going on? "
1552
01:02:28,364 --> 01:02:30,484
I think a fair amount
of the press
1553
01:02:30,604 --> 01:02:31,924
took it all with a pinoh ot salt
1554
01:02:32,004 --> 01:02:34,284
and you know,
"This is Ni9el , this is Nigel . "
1555
01:02:35,644 --> 01:02:37,604
MANGELL:
My oommitment was to my tamily.
1556
01:02:38,604 --> 01:02:41,204
I mean , the years I was
away from my family
1557
01:02:41,284 --> 01:02:43,404
anU my wife was. . .
it was tou9h .
1558
01:02:43,484 --> 01:02:46,004
There ' s so many
inorediUIe moments
1559
01:02:46,084 --> 01:02:49,084
in my oareer with Lotus
anU Williams and Perrari
1560
01:02:49,164 --> 01:02:51,964
anU a numUer of PeoPIe
I IoveU had dieU
1561
01:02:52,244 --> 01:02:54,084
my teammates haU dieU
1562
01:02:54,324 --> 01:02:58,364
I ' U been olose then , oUviously,
a oouPIe of times.
1563
01:02:59,484 --> 01:03:01,684
I ' II get out, and get a Iite.
1564
01:03:01,764 --> 01:03:03,524
I 've got a Ion9 Iife aheaU ot me
1565
01:03:03,644 --> 01:03:05,524
I ' m still alive,
I ' m still Ureathin9 .
1566
01:03:07,164 --> 01:03:09,164
I was the happiest
I Gould have Ueen .
1567
01:03:09,524 --> 01:03:11,884
I only haU aUout six weeks
or so, it was really gooU .
1568
01:03:11,964 --> 01:03:14,484
I was plannin9 my golf
anU I was plannin9 fishing .
1569
01:03:14,724 --> 01:03:17,484
Really, really in a gooU plaGe,
it was great.
1570
01:03:18,164 --> 01:03:21,764
AnU then , um , of oourse. . .
Prost and Senna
1571
01:03:21,844 --> 01:03:25,644
they' re supPoseU to Ue Uriving
for Williams for ' 91 and ' 92 .
1572
01:03:25,964 --> 01:03:27,404
They oUviously Uid
their homework
1573
01:03:27,484 --> 01:03:30,284
anU saw that the Williams wasn 't
gonna Ue the worlU-beater
1574
01:03:30,364 --> 01:03:32,284
that they thou9ht it was
9onna Ue anU ...
1575
01:03:32,404 --> 01:03:34,364
neither one ot them wanted
to Urive for him .
1576
01:03:34,684 --> 01:03:37,284
AnU there was no numUer one
Urivers arounU .
1577
01:03:37,564 --> 01:03:38,604
GheriUan poppeU up.
1578
01:03:38,684 --> 01:03:41,484
He said , "We ' U Iike you to Ue
the IeaU Uriver for Williams. "
1579
01:03:41,804 --> 01:03:43,564
And of Gourse, then ultimately
1580
01:03:43,844 --> 01:03:45,244
Roseanne and I UeoiUeU
1581
01:03:45,324 --> 01:03:48,044
that I perhaps wouldn 't Ue able
to Iive with myselt
1582
01:03:48,524 --> 01:03:49,764
if I UiUn 't 9ive it a go.
1583
01:03:49,844 --> 01:03:51,164
AnU one of the journalists
1584
01:03:51,844 --> 01:03:53,164
suUUenly Game up to me
anU he saiU
1585
01:03:53,244 --> 01:03:54,764
" I 've just haU
my offiGe on the phone.
1586
01:03:54,844 --> 01:03:56,684
They've just saiU

1587
01:03:56,964 --> 01:03:58,244
Ni9el ' s Goming Uaok

1588
01:03:58,324 --> 01:04:00,484
I saiU , "Well . . .

1589
01:04:00,804 --> 01:04:02,444
"Well , he 's unretiring . "

TOM MORTON :
The FW1 4B oar 11 is so speoiaI
1601
01:04:34,884 --> 01:04:36,444

AnU also, to Williams fans

1606

for the big moment
on SunUay.

1615
01:05:09,044 --> 01:05:11,524
REPORTER: Eight months on
from his emotlonal retlrement
1616
01:05:11,604 --> 01:05:13,924
Mansell was back at Sllverstone
today with a team
1617
01:05:14,004 --> 01:05:15,364
he can trust and a new car
1618
01:05:15,444 --> 01:05:16,884
produced by the organlsation
1619
01:05:16,964 --> 01:05:20,244
that so nearly brought him world
championshlps in 'B6 and '87.
1620
01:05:20,444 --> 01:05:23,084
WI N DSOR: Nigel was Uaok
in normali a9ain .
1621
01:05:23,564 --> 01:05:25,324
This time with a teamme
1622
01:05:25,404 --> 01:05:27,284
with whioh he GoulU feel
oomfortable.
1623
01:05:27,364 --> 01:05:28,404
Pinally, he got RioGarUo
1624
01:05:28,484 --> 01:05:31,644
and that GoinGiUeU with
a whole new era for Williams
1625

with PatriGk HeaU workin9
with this amazing boy hero
1626
01:05:36,484 --> 01:05:37,764
AUrian Newey.
1627
01:05:37,844 --> 01:05:39,844
He UiUn 't oome in
with any real fanfare.
1628
01:05:40,564 --> 01:05:41,964
He UasiGally just apPeareU .
1629
01:05:42,204 --> 01:05:44,124
Even then , baok then ,
you know
1630
01:05:44,204 --> 01:05:45,284
you GoulU tell straightaway
1631
01:05:45,364 --> 01:05:46,924
he was a very speGial
inUiviUual .
1632
01:05:47,484 --> 01:05:49,044
He UiUn 't always neeU
a winU tunnel .
1633
01:05:49,124 --> 01:05:51,364
He ooulU Iook at a Gar
and see whiGh way the air
1634
01:05:51,444 --> 01:05:52,924
was aGtually flowin9 over it.
1635
01:05:53,004 --> 01:05:55,084
H I LL: Using the Gookpit
as an aeroUynamio UeviGe
1636
01:05:55,164 --> 01:05:57,364
was a oompletely
massive Ueparture
1637
01:05:57,444 --> 01:05:59,924
from the olU ,
Uoxy-Iooking Williams.
1638
01:06:00,044 --> 01:06:01,364
They also haU Renault engines
1639
01:06:01,444 --> 01:06:03,324
and Renault en9ines were
ooming stron9
1640
01:06:03,404 --> 01:06:04,524
anU they were 9oin9 plaoes.
1641
01:06:04,604 --> 01:06:08,004
The ' 91 season was all about
Senna versus Mansell .
1642
01:06:08,084 --> 01:06:10,404
You talk aUout iooniG moments
in motorsport
1643
01:06:10,484 --> 01:06:11,804
Uut that shot
Uown the straiDht
1644
01:06:11,884 --> 01:06:15,844
where Genna and Mansell were
Uefying eaGh other to baok off.
1645
01:06:15,924 --> 01:06:17,404
WonUerful Formula 1 .
1646
01:06:17,484 --> 01:06:19,724
I think it took me
a Iittle bit ot time to realise
1647
01:06:19,804 --> 01:06:22,804
just how ruthless Ayrton was.
1648
01:06:22,884 --> 01:06:25,204
I mean , he aGtually PIanneU
how to knook people
1649
01:06:25,284 --> 01:06:26,804
off the GirGuit
a numUer of times
1650
01:06:26,884 --> 01:06:28,884
anU I was the reGiPient
of th a few times.
1651
01:06:28,964 --> 01:06:30,644
ALLEN : In the early Uays,
Genna was a Uit wilU .
1652
01:06:30,724 --> 01:06:32,444
He Uidn 't mind taking
people off the raoetraok.
1653
01:06:32,524 --> 01:06:34,724
Ni9el famously onoe
pinneU him against the walI
1654
01:06:34,804 --> 01:06:36,164
by his throat anU saiU
1655
01:06:36,244 --> 01:06:38,324
" If you ever Uo that again ,
I ' II knook your blook off. "
1656
01:06:38,404 --> 01:06:40,124
MANGELL:
We haU a hell of a Punoh-up
1657
01:06:40,204 --> 01:06:42,924
at the Gpa Grand Prix
when we Uoth went off.
1658
01:06:43,004 --> 01:06:44,964
He says, "You ' re aUsolutely
Grazy, aren 't you? "
1659
01:06:45,044 --> 01:06:46,604
AnU I said , " No, "
I saiU , " I ' m not Grazy"
1660
01:06:46,684 --> 01:06:48,244
I saiU ,
" But I 've haU enough of you .
1661
01:06:48,324 --> 01:06:50,204
I ' m not 9onna Iet you
intimidate me
1662
01:06:50,284 --> 01:06:51,724
anU take me off anymore.
1663
01:06:51,804 --> 01:06:53,284
AnU if you ' re gonna try
anU kill me
1664
01:06:53,364 --> 01:06:55,364
I ' m telling you now,
I ' II kill you .
1665
01:06:55,604 --> 01:06:57,204
We ' re either gonna Uie together
1666
01:06:57,284 --> 01:06:59,324
or there ' s 9onna Ue
a healthy respeGt. "
1667
01:06:59,404 --> 01:07:01,324
AnU from that seoonU on
1668
01:07:01,684 --> 01:07:02,884
anU I would say
1669
01:07:02,964 --> 01:07:05,644
there was a far greater
unUerstanUing Uetween us.
1670
01:07:05,764 --> 01:07:08,044
Yeah , we 9ot on
a Iot Uetter then .
1671
01:07:11,804 --> 01:07:13,524
RI DER: AnU then of Gourse
we get to Gilverstone
1672
01:07:13,604 --> 01:07:16,204
anU of Gourse, Nigel is Donna
Uo it again for the GrowU .
1673
01:07:16,284 --> 01:07:18,924
This time the orowU
oome pouring onto the GirGuit
1674
01:07:19,124 --> 01:07:20,804
anU he piokeU up Ayrton Senna
1675
01:07:20,884 --> 01:07:23,324
in a wonUerful 9esture to 9ive
him a Iift UaGk to the pits.
1676
01:07:23,404 --> 01:07:24,644
He Dot GritioiseU for that.
1677
01:07:24,724 --> 01:07:27,284
AII Ayrton was Uoing was
reaUin9 the Uata
1678
01:07:27,364 --> 01:07:28,724
from his steerin9 wheeI
1679

to report UaGk to the team
1680
01:07:31,204 --> 01:07:32,924
on wh he ' U seen

1681
01:07:33,004 --> 01:07:35,684
Go Nigel ' s nioe aGt
baoireU a Iittle Uit.
1682
01:07:36,204 --> 01:07:37,804
After the Silverstone heroios
1683
01:07:37,884 --> 01:07:40,444
well , Ni9el was
in tirm oontention
1684
01:07:40,604 --> 01:07:42,884
until of oourse,
that awful moment in Portugal .
1685
01:07:42,964 --> 01:07:44,404
ALLEN :
The soenario ooulUn 't Ue Uetter.
1686
01:07:44,484 --> 01:07:45,924
He ' s in Gontrol

Ueoause Senna' s further Uaok.
1689
01:07:49,324 --> 01:07:51,004
It was all set up
perteGtly for Nigel .
1690
01:07:53,404 --> 01:07:55,484
WI N DSOR: The oar oame in ,

took the nut out,
wheel Game off, Put the nut on .
1692
01:07:59,524 --> 01:08:01,044
It 9ot Gross-threaUeU .
1693
01:08:01,204 --> 01:08:02,844
But what he UiU
was pull the gun out
1694
01:08:02,924 --> 01:08:05,164
anU when the guy on the
rear jaGk saw the gun Gome out
1695
01:08:05,244 --> 01:08:06,844
he thou9ht,
"Oh , that wheel ' s GIear. "
1696
01:08:07,364 --> 01:08:08,404
AnU that was the proUIem .

LOU D BANG

1701
01:08:19,364 --> 01:08:21,884
Like putting four wheels on
insteaU of just three. "
1702
01:08:22,244 --> 01:08:24,164
BRADGHAW:
The meUia were onto us
1703
01:08:24,244 --> 01:08:25,644
wantin9 to know
whose tault it was.
1704
01:08:25,724 --> 01:08:27,524
AnU I ' II give Nigel his Uue

He saiU , "You know,

01:08:32,564 --> 01:08:33,564
anU we Iose as a team . "
1708
01:08:33,644 --> 01:08:35,324

oompletely UisappeareU .
1710
01:08:36,684 --> 01:08:39,524
For a third time,
he was runner-up
1711
01:08:39,684 --> 01:08:41,444
in the Pormula 1
WorlU ChamPionship.
1712
01:08:41,684 --> 01:08:44,444
But thin9s were only about
to get a Uit worse in AUelaide.
1713
01:08:44,644 --> 01:08:46,164
We were raGin9 in a monsoon .
1714
01:08:46,244 --> 01:08:48,724
There was somethin9 Iike seven ,
eight, mayUe even nine oars

GrasheU out alreaUy

01:08:50,084 --> 01:08:53,004
anU I was raGing tooth and nail ,

1717
01:08:53,364 --> 01:08:55,404
AnU I just aquaPIaneU
strai9ht off
1718
01:08:55,484 --> 01:08:57,364
straight into a solid
oonorete wall .
1719
01:08:57,444 --> 01:09:00,124
And I felt my foot Ureak
as soon as I hit the wall .
1720
01:09:00,204 --> 01:09:01,844
ALLEN : It wasn 't really
oUvious at the time
1721
01:09:01,924 --> 01:09:03,724
how serious it was,
Uut as time went on
1722
01:09:03,804 --> 01:09:06,124
it Ueoame olear this was
a muGh more serious situation
1723
01:09:06,204 --> 01:09:07,524
than it haU tirst IookeU .
1724
01:09:07,604 --> 01:09:10,604
My surgeon said ,
"Your foot' s splintered . "
1725
01:09:10,684 --> 01:09:12,724
He saiU ,
"We 've got to get the ohiseI
1726
01:09:12,804 --> 01:09:14,164
anU hit it with a hammer
1727
01:09:14,244 --> 01:09:16,244
anU 9et the bone spurs oft"
1728
01:09:16,324 --> 01:09:17,324
whiGh were splintereU
1729
01:09:17,404 --> 01:09:19,684
and I saiU , " Look, I Gan 't
have three months off. "
1730
01:09:20,444 --> 01:09:22,324
I saiU , "What' s the worst Gase
sGenario? "
1731
01:09:22,404 --> 01:09:24,604
He saiU , "Well , eventually
the sPIinters
1732
01:09:24,684 --> 01:09:26,524
will oome through the surtaoe, "
anU he saiU
1733
01:09:26,604 --> 01:09:28,404
"Then you oan pull ' em out.
1734
01:09:28,684 --> 01:09:30,564
But it will Ue
very, very painful . "
1735
01:09:30,684 --> 01:09:32,284
AnU I saiU ,
"Well , I ' II Uo that. "
1736
01:09:32,364 --> 01:09:34,404
And when you have an injury,
you have to then
1737
01:09:34,484 --> 01:09:36,644
9o to the PIA doGtors
anU pass meUioals...
1738
01:09:36,724 --> 01:09:38,044
I knew I wouldn 't
Pass a meUiGaI
1739
01:09:38,124 --> 01:09:40,004
Ueoause if they examineU it
anU touoheU it
1740
01:09:40,124 --> 01:09:41,124
I ' U pass out.
1741
01:09:41,204 --> 01:09:42,684
My thought proGess
1742
01:09:43,244 --> 01:09:45,604
perhaps not the Uest, I aUmit
1743
01:09:46,284 --> 01:09:47,764
was not tell anyUody...
1744
01:09:48,524 --> 01:09:51,084
whiGh is pretty tough
Ueoause I had a Iimp all year.
1745
01:09:51,484 --> 01:09:54,204
Go ' 91 enUs

01:09:54,284 --> 01:09:55,684
Uut there was
a UifferenGe this time.
1747
01:09:55,764 --> 01:09:57,764
There was a real optimism
within the team
1748
01:09:57,844 --> 01:09:59,324
anU I think
Ni9el knew it as well .
1749
01:09:59,404 --> 01:10:01,524
He just neeUeU to make sure
that he was reaUy.
1750
01:10:02,684 --> 01:10:03,844

AnU you 've got Ui9Der.
1766
01:10:38,684 --> 01:10:39,724

PRATTLEY:

1770
01:10:51,564 --> 01:10:53,284
MANSELL: I Uunno.
You ' II have to teaoh me.
1771
01:10:55,964 --> 01:10:58,484

The olutGh is very harU ,

1782
01:11:19,364 --> 01:11:21,964
Amazin9Iy enou9h ,

1783
01:11:22,044 --> 01:11:22,964
It' s GomfortaUIe.
1784
01:11:23,444 --> 01:11:26,284
The UaGk of the sPine ' s
in the seat, whioh is Iovely.
1785
01:11:27,444 --> 01:11:29,364
AnU the heaUrest is not too Uad .
1786
01:11:32,964 --> 01:11:34,324
TOOLS WH I R
1787
01:11:34,564 --> 01:11:37,284
I tell you , Goming UaGk
anU sittin9 in it
1788
01:11:37,764 --> 01:11:40,564
you aGtually realise
just how exposeU we were.
1789
01:11:41,324 --> 01:11:42,364
I mean , when you think
1790
01:11:42,444 --> 01:11:44,124
the proteGtion they've got now.
- MAN : Yeah .
1791
01:11:48,564 --> 01:11:49,684
I nGreUiUIe.
1792
01:11:50,484 --> 01:11:53,444
I just want to Iet you know
how really, really proud
1793
01:11:53,524 --> 01:11:55,804
I am to be here,
and Urive the oar.
1794
01:11:55,884 --> 01:11:57,204
It' s tantastiG.
1795
01:11:57,524 --> 01:11:59,644
AII the memories
are flooUing UaGk.
1796
01:12:10,524 --> 01:12:12,684
I rememUer
this position very well .
1797
01:12:12,884 --> 01:12:14,444
THEY LAUG H
1798
01:12:15,444 --> 01:12:17,124
This will always Ue your oar
1799
01:12:17,204 --> 01:12:18,684
so that' s a time
in history that' s yours.
1800
01:12:18,764 --> 01:12:20,604
Moment in time, isn 't it?
- Yeah , yeah .
1801
01:12:20,804 --> 01:12:22,484
I mean , to think
it's SD years a9o
1802
01:12:22,564 --> 01:12:24,044
is staggering .
- I know, I know.
1803
01:12:24,444 --> 01:12:26,644
MACH I N ERY WH I RS
1804
01:12:33,884 --> 01:12:35,324
WOMAN :
Can I take a pioture with you?
1805
01:12:35,404 --> 01:12:36,644
Yes, please, yeah .
1806
01:12:36,724 --> 01:12:38,684
Wow, I ' m so UIesseU , thank you .
1807
01:12:41,764 --> 01:12:42,724
Thank you .
1808
01:12:44,564 --> 01:12:46,524
I N DIGTI NCT CHATTER
1809
01:12:47,484 --> 01:12:51,044
WI N DGOR: As ' 91 went into ' 92 ,
Nigel knew he haU
1810
01:12:51,124 --> 01:12:53,324
a real opPortuni to win
the World Championship.
1811
01:12:53,924 --> 01:12:55,764
MANSELL: You 've Ureamt it
for years anU years
1812
01:12:55,844 --> 01:12:57,044
you 've tasteU it.
1813
01:12:57,564 --> 01:12:59,004
I mean , I ' m 9oinD
9oose-pimPIy now.
1814
01:12:59,084 --> 01:13:01,124
How oan you go goose-pimply
SD years er?
1815
01:13:01,204 --> 01:13:02,684
It was almost
Iike a Roc movie.
1816
01:13:02,764 --> 01:13:05,084
I mean , he ' s S9 years of age
1817
01:13:05,164 --> 01:13:07,484
he ' s almost 4O,
he 's 9ot a Uroken foot
1818
01:13:07,564 --> 01:13:09,644
anU he ' s going into the Iast
year of his Gontraot.
1819
01:13:09,724 --> 01:13:11,404
There was very muoh
this sense that it' s...
1820
01:13:11,484 --> 01:13:13,004
it' s now or never,
it' s make or break.
1821
01:13:13,084 --> 01:13:15,564
He was running out of years,
so I think he knew
1822
01:13:15,644 --> 01:13:17,524
this proUably
was his Iast shot it.
1823
01:13:17,684 --> 01:13:19,724
I think they were very exoiteU
and very GonfiUent
1824
01:13:19,804 --> 01:13:20,684
aUout their oar.
1825
01:13:20,844 --> 01:13:22,924
These Uays, there ' s a new Gar
every season
1826
01:13:23,004 --> 01:13:24,364
Uut it was suGh a gooU Gar
1827
01:13:24,444 --> 01:13:26,324
I think they just felt
that they GoulU Uevelop
1828
01:13:26,404 --> 01:13:28,004
some parts of it
anU it woulU Ue Uetter.
1829
01:13:28,084 --> 01:13:30,444
CHAN DHOK: The 1 4B
is one of the top five
1830
01:13:30,524 --> 01:13:32,244
greatest Gars of all time.
1831
01:13:32,324 --> 01:13:34,564
It haU a new
teGhnoloDioal weapon
1832
01:13:34,644 --> 01:13:36,004
known as "aGtive riUe" .
1833
01:13:36,204 --> 01:13:39,284
They haU 9one through suoh
an exhaustive testin9 pro9ramme
1834
01:13:39,364 --> 01:13:42,644
in ' 91 with the Iikes of
Damon Hill anU Mark BIunUelI
1835
01:13:42,724 --> 01:13:45,804
to make sure the oar
was reliaUIe tor it in ' 92 .
1836
01:13:45,964 --> 01:13:48,604
Ni9el GalleU me the test monkey
I think, somethin9 Iike that.
1837
01:13:48,844 --> 01:13:49,884
It just...
1838
01:13:51,084 --> 01:13:53,084
was a Ueast, UasiGally.
1839
01:13:53,284 --> 01:13:55,084
It haU a Iife of its own .
1840
01:13:55,164 --> 01:13:56,764
It used to just sit there
in the garage
1841
01:13:56,844 --> 01:13:59,764
movin9 on its own ,
up anU Uown , siUe to siUe
1842
01:13:59,844 --> 01:14:02,564
UIeeUin9 the air out
of its hydraulio systems.
1843
01:14:03,084 --> 01:14:04,404
ALLEN : What was so
speGial aUout
1844
01:14:04,484 --> 01:14:05,644
the aotive riUe susPension?
1845
01:14:05,724 --> 01:14:08,204
What it meant was
that the Gar woulU antioipate
1846
01:14:08,284 --> 01:14:09,324
the bumps in the roaU .
1847
01:14:09,644 --> 01:14:11,244
Look at one ot those viUeos
on YouTuUe
1848
01:14:11,324 --> 01:14:13,964
of holding a GhiGken ' s boUy
anU tilting it Iike that
1849
01:14:14,044 --> 01:14:16,804
anU yet the heaU stays
exaotly in the same plaoe.
1850
01:14:16,924 --> 01:14:18,004
That is aGtive riUe.
1851
01:14:18,084 --> 01:14:19,724
It's not to Uo
with the suspension
1852
01:14:19,804 --> 01:14:20,964
it' s to Uo
with the aerodynamios.
1853
01:14:21,164 --> 01:14:23,524
If you Iook at PiGtures
ot the aGtive Gar
1854
01:14:23,604 --> 01:14:25,524
it Iooks Iike
the suspension ' s broken .
1855
01:14:25,604 --> 01:14:27,324
It Iooks. . . you oan 't
see any air unUerneh it.
1856
01:14:27,404 --> 01:14:28,884
It is stuGk to the 9round .
1857
01:14:29,204 --> 01:14:31,124
It you oan keep the oar
in a steaUy state
1858
01:14:31,204 --> 01:14:33,204
anU keep it staUIe,
then those aerodynamios
1859
01:14:33,284 --> 01:14:35,044
are always operating
at their top Ievel .
1860
01:14:35,124 --> 01:14:37,164
H I LL: It was only really
maUe possiUIe Uy GomPuters
1861
01:14:37,244 --> 01:14:39,564
anU it meant that this was
the start of
1862
01:14:39,804 --> 01:14:41,684
really, what we take
for 9ranted toUay.
1863
01:14:41,764 --> 01:14:43,324
You know,
they broke that grounU .
1864
01:14:43,404 --> 01:14:46,444
Aotive suspension Iooks
9reat on paper
1865
01:14:46,844 --> 01:14:49,684
sometimes it Uoes weirU things.
It woulU start to shake
1866
01:14:49,764 --> 01:14:51,844
a Iittle Uit anU then it woulU
get really violent.
1867
01:14:51,924 --> 01:14:54,684
Anyway, you Uon 't want that when
you ' re going 1 BO miles an hour.
1868
01:14:54,764 --> 01:14:58,604
So Ni9el was unUerstanUaUIy
sGePtioal about this.
1869
01:14:58,684 --> 01:15:00,444
MANGELL:
The oar, I woulU say
1870
01:15:00,524 --> 01:15:02,964
is one of the most
dangerous oars to Urive.
1871
01:15:03,724 --> 01:15:05,844
You haU to antioipe
what it was Donna Uo
1872
01:15:05,924 --> 01:15:08,644
trust that it woulUn 't
Gompletely fail you
1873
01:15:08,724 --> 01:15:10,844
Uut if it diU , you ' d get hurt.
1874
01:15:11,204 --> 01:15:12,964
And it hadn 't killeU me,
so it' U Ue alri9ht.
1875
01:15:13,044 --> 01:15:14,604
HE LAUG HS
1876
01:15:14,964 --> 01:15:17,884
SuUjeGt to upsetting my wife
anU the tamily anU friends
1877
01:15:17,964 --> 01:15:20,604
anU everything else,
I Game first.
1878
01:15:20,884 --> 01:15:24,484
There was nothing th Game
Uetween me anU Uoin9 my joU.
1879
01:15:24,564 --> 01:15:26,404
PRATTLEY:
Nigel took me to one siUe
1880
01:15:26,564 --> 01:15:28,564
and he saiU ,
"Just make this oar Uulletproof
1881
01:15:28,644 --> 01:15:30,284
and we will
GIean up this season . "
1882
01:15:30,484 --> 01:15:33,204
We Uasioally then went oft
to the tirst tive raGes
1883
01:15:33,284 --> 01:15:36,044
and won the first five raGes
on the trot.
1884
01:15:36,364 --> 01:15:38,284
ENG I N ES REV AN D WH I N E
1885
01:15:38,524 --> 01:15:41,444
BUTTON : I think he found
a groove with that Gar.
1886
01:15:41,524 --> 01:15:44,004
Y' know, I think he founU a set
up that really workeU for him .
1887
01:15:44,084 --> 01:15:46,524
AnU you Gan see it, he was
so GonfiUent in his Urivin9.
1888
01:15:46,604 --> 01:15:48,964
It' s a GomPIete Garioature
and a talsehood to say
1889
01:15:49,044 --> 01:15:50,564
"Oh , this was a roUot Gar
1890
01:15:50,644 --> 01:15:53,004
anU all Mansell haU to Uo was
just drive it anU he would win . "
1891
01:15:53,084 --> 01:15:56,044
Nigel was really in tune
with the physiGs of the Gar
1892
01:15:56,124 --> 01:15:57,884
and he IoveU
the physios of the oar.
1893
01:15:57,964 --> 01:16:00,764
H I LL: There ' s somethinD extra
that he was gettin9 out of it.
1894
01:16:00,844 --> 01:16:03,444
I mean ,
he woulU wring its neGk.
1895
01:16:03,524 --> 01:16:07,044
I wanteU thin9s so UaU ,
that I was prepared to...
1896
01:16:08,084 --> 01:16:09,524
push it out there
a Iittle Uit more.
1897
01:16:09,604 --> 01:16:11,364
H I LL: Ayrton Genna,
they were envious.
1898
01:16:11,444 --> 01:16:12,324
Everyone was envious
1899
01:16:12,404 --> 01:16:15,164
Ueoause who woulUn 't
want to Ue in the sharp end?
1900
01:16:15,404 --> 01:16:17,004
MANSELL: I knew everyone
was staGking up
1901
01:16:17,084 --> 01:16:18,244
to take the Urive.
1902
01:16:18,684 --> 01:16:21,364
I was willinD to go into
every raGe anU risk my Iife.
1903
01:16:21,524 --> 01:16:23,204
If I UieU , I UieU
1904
01:16:23,524 --> 01:16:25,604
Uut the oommitment I haU
was aUsolute.
1905
01:16:25,684 --> 01:16:27,124
I mean , that' s the only thing
I Gan say.
1906
01:16:27,204 --> 01:16:28,444
The oommitment was total .
1907
01:16:29,084 --> 01:16:30,604
BRADSHAW: We knew
that the oar GoulU perform .
1908
01:16:30,764 --> 01:16:34,124
We knew Nigel ooulU pertorm ,
anU we haU a GonfiUenGe
1909
01:16:34,204 --> 01:16:36,844
that neither was
9onna Iet us down .
1910
01:16:37,044 --> 01:16:39,484
We oan see the Ghampionship
ooming towards us
1911
01:16:39,604 --> 01:16:41,724
anU it was Iike we oan 't
Urop the Uall this time
1912
01:16:41,804 --> 01:16:42,724
we Gan 't Urop the Uall .
1913
01:16:43,164 --> 01:16:44,884
COMM ENTATOR:
Finally, the moment
1914
01:16:44,964 --> 01:16:47,204
