Damon should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Mansell drove with his heart where as Damon drove with his head. When Nigel really wanted it there was honestly no one in the world that could beat him, even Senna. The pole he pulled out of the bag at Silverstone '91 or his close in and pass of Piquet (again at Silverstone) in '87 are but two examples.

On the odd occasion Damon could have days like that as well (Japan '94), but what he didn't have, that Nigel did, was the ability to take any car by the scruff of the neck and make it the quickest car out there. Of course this was in the day when the driver had the ability to do that as they were not restricted by gadgets.
