When Nigel Mansell did a touring car shootout - and crashed!

I know this ain’t a place for questions and also I’m probably crossing podcasts here (the race stories from supertouring )but I thought I’d fire one anyway curious to see what you lot think. Given 1. Mansell was abit younger and only just come out of f1 2. The cars were abit less sophisticated with less aero pre 95 3. Ford much more competitive then 98 Would mansell of had a better time if he did his Btcc stint in 1994 could have challenged for more races then just that soggy day in donington 98?

What a racer Mansell was, and had survived so many big crashes that could have been fatal. Motorsport legend! 🏆

It was a helluva shunt which I'd never appreciated before. If you compare to Bellof's fatal accident 8 years prior, it looked like a much harder hit.

Touring cars in the 90s was immense. "Chris Rea on back row" just dropped in as if it was normal

Chris Campbell

The crash worked out quite fortunately for him. Could so easily have been banging his head on the wall. Other than that, the usual incredible Mansell drama which he (for reasons unknown) felt the need to ham up at every chance.
