Were you there on that day??
The 1991 Grand Prix season started with great public expectations - supporting, encouraging and urging Nigel Mansell to win the Formula 1 World Championship. Nigel Mansell was dominant in front of an ecstatic crowd in this memorable race at Silverstone winning the race four places ahead of Senna as, unbelievably, Ayrton Senna's car ran out of fuel! Hearing the heckling crowd, Mansell took pity on Senna during his victory lap and gave him a lift back to the pits, much to the annoyance of officialdom!
