Four-time Formula 1 champion Vettel bought Mansell's car in 2018, drove it at Silverstone on his 35th birthday Sunday.
Vettel purchased the car in 2018 and brought it to Silverstone, and has updated it in order for it to run with carbon neutral fuels. Mansell climbed onto the pit wall to lovingly watch his old machine being taken for a spin by the four-time world champion, which took place on race day, which was also Vettel’s 35th birthday.“It was my idea,” Vettel said. “The Red Five is the car from ‘92 with the red five on it. And that means a bit more than just the car from 30 years ago.
"I was wearing No. 5 in karting throughout karting quite a lot. And I'm having number five now, so there's a link there. And I think the early 90s is the sort of… memories that I have from Formula 1 the first sort of memories, that car and the years after. Yeah, it was my idea, my initiative and you know, I thought 30 years… after exactly 30 years after it won the championship in ’92 but it also won the British Grand Prix 30 years ago.
