00:00 You always had the sense of Frank Williams being this figure in the background,

00:04 just looking for opportunities.

00:05 Motor racing was his life, he loved it.

00:07 And very quickly he got it together.

00:09 Birmingham, England in the 1960s and 70s was not terribly glamorous and not really the sort

00:21 of place you'd expect a Grand Prix star to come from.

00:23 You know, he should come from Argentina and be called Juan Manuel Fanja,

00:27 Alberto Ascari or something, anything, you know, but Nigel Mansell from Birmingham.

00:32 We sold everything we owned to buy a work drive.

00:36 Carlos took one look at him and turned to me and said, "Yeah, yeah, he's got it, for sure."

00:40 Nigel was the best British driver we've had come along in years.

00:43 Nigel Mansell has arrived.

00:48 I was up and gone, I mean, I was ready to win everything.

00:55 It was a worry, I think, in the sport that Nigel was sort of attracted to the wrong sort of fans.

01:00 He was a bruiser and would do anything to succeed.

01:06 You don't want four people at the same time in one shot.

01:09 They're the old "try and be friendly".

01:10 "If you're going to try and kill me, I'm telling you now, I'll kill you."

01:14 I was beginning to wonder whether Nigel was jeeped, shall we say.

01:23 "You've come that close?" And I said, "I'm done."

01:25 You look at it and you just think, "That car has to be quick."

01:33 Nigel's coming back to Williams, but he's retired.

01:39 But he's un-retiring us.

01:41 At 39, it was now or never for Nigel.

01:45 And he's away! Man and machine finally reunited!

01:49 All the memories are flooding back.

01:51 We can't drop the ball this time. We can't drop the ball.

01:53 I mean, come on, let's get it done.
