August 1, 1993: Defending F1 champ Nigel Mansell won the Michigan 500, the prestigious IndyCar superspeedway race
"This stands alone. I've never been in a race like this. This is one of the greatest victories of my career. It makes me very proud to win on a circuit like this"
@DaleJr@MambaSmith34 Man i don’t even like that you have to apologize for this. Kid just won the biggest race of his life. It’s a couple rubber marks. I get it i get it, but blah.
Great weekend for the Kvapil family!
Our apologies. The driver was unplugged from his radio when NASCAR sent the reminder. Lots going on when that all went down. Certainly regret any inconvenience.
