Mansell was often such a whinge for the camera, limping about with a face liked a smacked arse. Other drivers hit the wall much harder, his car was hardly damaged at all. I’m not saying he was fabricating injuries AT ALL I just think many others would have brushed themselves off and said “I’m a bit sore” etc. He just seemed to be limping much worse on his way to the interview than he was getting back to the pits. Probably get abuse for this post but I’m just saying what I’m seeing.

I agree, and I’m as big a Mansell fan there is, when he’s INSIDE the car, lol.
When he walked the 1991 British GP, many felt he fabricated dramas inside the car, almost(as James Hunt said) as if he found it uncomfortable when having an easy win, which is typically British, I have to say. We Brits usually prefer to have some sort of underdog fight and then win.
I often say, the ideal British driver would be Nigel Mansell inside the car, but Damon Hill, when outside it!

Sad to hear about that, I lost many nice videos in the same way :(

I’m crying, because I had 80% of them, but lost the lot, when my old VCR chewed up the cassette, some years back! :(
Adelaide and the season review were the only ones on a different tape.
