Jim Wiseman’s Sky original documentary “Williams and Mansell: Red 5” is set for a debut on Sky Documentaries and Now on July 8. Featuring some of the biggest names in F1, it follows Nigel Mansell and the Williams Racing team’s rise to fame told through the eyes of his team, family and drivers including Jenson Button, Damon Hill and Karun Chandhok.
Mansell grew up in England in the 1960s, dreaming of becoming a professional race car driver, despite not having the financial means for it, while Frank Williams was realizing his own dream at the company he founded, Williams Grand Prix Engineering. The two joined forces, and after years of trying to win together, Mansell left to join Ferrari and then ultimately retired from racing after years of ups and downs, without ever winning the Formula One Drivers’ Championship. But seemingly overnight, he came out of retirement and re-joined Williams Racing.

Like all fun, dumb, egregiously unverified celebrity rumors these days, it came from Deux Moi: Taylor Swift, fresh off her breakup with Joe Alwyn, was allegedly racing back to the dating world with… Formula 1 driver and two-time world champion Fernando Alonso.
That was back in mid-April, and there’s been no news since to confirm (or, technically, deny) the rumors, but you better believe the gossip has engendered a ton of content. Alonso himself has been leaning heavily into the bit, and it even spilled over into coverage...

Sky Sports Formula One commentators David Croft and Karun Chandhok couldn’t resist poking fun at Fernando Alonso amid those Taylor Swift romance rumours.
Swift has been romantically linked to the two-time F1 world champion after it was revealed last month that she’d split from Joe Alwyn. Alonso has also broken up with Andrea Schlager.
Despite the pair not confirming anything, the Spanish racing driver did share a cheeky TikTok clip of himself lifting weights to the tune of Swift’s “22” over the weekend, winking at the camera.
He captioned the post, “Im lifting 22’s #F1 #F1TikTok #Formula1 #f1edit.”

Exclusive: Discovery’s long-running motoring format Fifth Gear is to relaunch as an Electronic Vehicle (Ev) show and has installed former Top Gear host Rory Reid to present.
Fifth Gear: Recharged will air episodes weekly on streamer Discovery+ in the UK and UKTV network Quest later this year as All3Media-owned producer North One looks to take advantage of colossal growing interest in EVs, which has quickened due to the current UK gas crisis.
