Mansell tipped for racing return

Former F1 world champion Nigel Mansell could make a dramatic return to front-line racing action this season.

The 54-year-old is eyeing up a Le Mans 24 Hours bid alongside sons Greg and Leo.

And while the deal might not be put in place in time for this year's race, Mansell Sr is close to agreeing a drive in the FIA GT Championship this season.

Mansell is currently in talks with CR Scuderia boss Chris Niarchos to feature in one of the team's Ferrari 430 GT2s next season.
