  • What is the greatest qualifying lap in Formula 1 history? While most would recommend Ayrton Senna's lap in the 1988 Monaco Grand Prix, nothing comes quite as close to Nigel Mansell's dominance at the 1992 British Grand Prix at Silverstone.
    In this episode of “Short View Back to the Past”, Autosport Chief Editor Kevin Turner discusses why Mansell's pole domination, will never be beaten.

    This is a great video - I was there to witness this first hand in 1992 as a 18 year old. I drove from my home town, having only passed my test a earlier in the year. I camped in a new tent my dad bought me, I borrowed all other supplies to keep myself comfortable. It was a real adventure, and its what made me the F1 nutcase I am today. Now living at Silverstone, and driving past the circuit every day. Nigel was my hero, and having met him multiple times since, he is a great man. For his sporting, community minded (Special Police Constable) and latterly UK Youth charitable achievements he ought to be Sir Nigel, following the likes of the great Stirling Moss and todays megastar Lewis Hamilton. CLICK Thumbs Up if you agree. Thanks

      Great story! Boy do I miss him racing!
      I was there too all day saturday, 18 years old but got a lift with my older brothers down from Derbyshire as I had the 2 previous years. This year was the beginning of the end for F1 as I knew it, or for what I liked about it. I filmed some of it at Bridge corner exit, the honda and renault engines vibrated the footage quite bad.

    It was a large gap, just like in Monaco 88. But here was the thing. Whether it was 1.5 seconds or 0.001 it only gets you a few metres ahead of the guy who starts alongside you. If you get a bad start or allow your rival to get into your head (like Alain did to Ayrton) you can undo all that very easily

    Also Villeneuves pole in Melbourne 96 which was 1.754 faster than anyone else. Senna I believe in 89 Japan which was basically the same amount faster than Prost. Very close and probably better teammates. So they stand out

  • @chicobicalho5621
    @chicobicalho5621 2 года назад +9

    It would be interesting to know, based on the speed at the finish line, the distance in meters (or feet for the American audience) between the two cars in 1.9 seconds. Or, between Mansell and Senna in third at 2.7 seconds! Perhaps a mathematician can figure it out, knowing the speed cars crossed the line at Silverstone in 1992. My guess is that the distance between 1st and 3rd was something like 150 meters. Anyone out there willing to find out more precisely?

    I was at Stowe corner in 1992, when Mansell came round the bend at the race start he was he was well ahead of the chasing pack and it just increased throughout the race. It seemed like 5 mins every time he came round the bend before Patrice followed.

    Ha. That's a really specific statistic. I'm impressed that it has been noted, yet nobody can deny gap/lap-km is something to talk about.
    A bit strange to push stats in the middle of the season but I guess the algorithm does not care that it's not race weekend.

      Well it was because the car was a technical masterpiece. But it took big balls and significant strength of character to drive it flat out and hang on to it. Nigel's team mate Nelson Piquet (3 times world champion) knows this better than anyone.
