Mansell always fought with his teammates (remember the famous Piquet/Mansell duels? One of which led to a WDC for Alain Prost?) He may have been a bit of a drama queen sometimes but he was a racer who made the most of the talent that he had.
And incidentally, he didn't whine that oval racing was "too dangerous" -- he went out there and competed and won, even when other race drivers tried to park on top of his head! [Does Dennis Vitolo sleep with the fishes nowadays or what?]
