Play Nigel Mansells World Championship Racing Online

Nigel Mansell's World Championship Racing came out for the Super Nintendo in 1992, developed by Gremlin Graphics. It was one of the more serious Formula One games on the system, arriving at a time when racing sims were starting to push the hardware's capabilities, especially with the use of Mode 7 scaling to create a sense of speed and depth.

You control Nigel Mansell's car through a full season of Grand Prix circuits, aiming to qualify well and win races against computer opponents. The game uses a behind the car perspective, and managing your speed through corners is critical; brake too late and you'll spin out, costing precious seconds. Pit stops for tire changes add a layer of strategy, forcing you to watch your wear indicators. The racing is demanding, with tight controls that punish mistakes heavily, but nailing a perfect lap feels incredibly satisfying. It captures the tension of high speed precision driving.
