Sids book 'Life on the limit' tells these stories and more in much more detail. His personnal recollection of Senna experiences will make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up!!

I remember reading the Mansell story. Mansell had crashed on the opening lap of a wet GP. He knew if the race was stopped he would be able to restart, so he sat motionless in the car with his head slumped forward.
When Watkins arrived he tapped him on the helmet and Mansell sat up and said "Hi Doc!" Watkins said "why haven't you got out of the car?" Mansell - "'cos it's dangerous out there." Watkins - "Why haven't you taken your helmet off?" Mansell, in his glorious Brummy accent - "'cos it's rhining!" |
