Pretty much agree with that, not so sure about the Mansell bit. As that was back in a time where physical strength was required more than stamina so being a bit bigger wasn't such a big issue. I imagine a lot of today's drivers would struggle to race one of those cars for up to two hours due to the brute strength required.
