"And Mansell was lucky not to be taken off by that RIDICULOUS bit of driving by Alliot!!" - James Hunt
"AAAAAND into the pitlane..... OHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!" - Murray Walker
Interesting story I read on my mobile phone during lunch hour, Kovalainen has probably just started a massive "war with words" with Renault test driver Nelson Piquet Jr.
Kovaleinen was asked who he preferred between Piquet Sr. and Nigel Mansell - who were both bitter rivals and teamates at Williams in 1986 and 1987 - and the rookie Finn said "I don't really remember much about either of them, but I would probably say Mansell because I dislike Piquet Jr."
So... how long before the "As my father said about Mansell, Kovalainen is a thick uneducated blockhead" comment comes out of Piquet Jr?
