'When someone dies in front of you it's not fun anymore'
The 1992 F1 world champion Nigel Mansell says the death of close friend and fellow racing driver Elio de Angelis in an accident in 1986 changed his perspective on driving.
De Angelis was an Italian racing driver who participated in Formula One, but was killed in an accident while testing the Brabham BT55 in France. Mansell says the safety improvements in the sport would mean he's not as concerned now about stepping in to a Formula One car.
