| The lastest news is that Alesi will move to Ferrari and Mansell will
move to Williams.

After yesterday's race he is supposed to have said that nothing has
changed, and denied joining Williams in a �7 million deal.

Mansell was definitely driving with a lot more enthusiasm and
commitment yesterday than we've seen of late. Something must have
caused that? Was it just a decent car?
Apparently, a clip on breakfast television this morning had him
saying (of a possible move to Williams) 'You'll have to wait and see'.
No news is good news? Well certainly, given the number of outright
denials he's made so far, it is a definite shift in position.
Personally, I think he should quit if he's lost the motivation, but
he didn't look like a driver lacking in motivation yesterday. If he
does go to Williams I just hope he doesn't spend the season whining
about how Williams/Renault can't give him the equipment to beat
Ferrari.

Amen to that! I'm not a person who follows any one driver closely - however
all of the leading drivers get up my nose sometime or other - the above well
describes Mansell.
BTW, I haven't seen yesterday's race yet; however there's a photograph in
today's paper of Mansell, Senna and Prost holding hands on the podium. Was this
some sort of "trick photography" - or did it really happen? :-)
Cheers

| Franks Williams Sums it up best, On Nigel , " He may have been a
pain out of the car, but he was absolute magic in it."
After all everyone else being signed Mansell has two chooses;
1. Retire
2. Sign with Williams.
From one who hopes Mansell stays and his detractors GO!

| Regarding hand holding:
Mansell was in great form on the podium. First he grabbed Senna, hugged
him. Prost stood quietly at the other side. A bit later, Mansell
grabbed the hand of Senna and Prost and held them both up.

WHAT ABOUT THAT:
Over a period of two years,Mansell ,with a better car
scored less points and victory's than Boutsen.
Why should he go ?

| re: 1234.9
You call running a Non Turbo car against Turbo anything a better
car. When Williams lost Honda Mansell drove a car with a Normally
asperated engine a Judd Piece of SH*T I believe and Williams has to
today be a best the third best tem in F1. Come On.7

| John Watson, on Eurosport said that he was pretty sure that Mansell had
decided NOT to continue with Williams - announcement Tuesday.
Mind you, a reply in 837 says the announcement is today - never know who to
believe!
The last two Grand Prix, Mansell has been so gracious on the podium - shaking
the hands of his rivals, waving at great length to the crowd etc. I wonder
whether he is glad to be back - after such a long absence, or is soaking it up
prior to finishing his career?
