F1 legend takes pictures with a teenage Manx racer

Formula One racing legend Nigel Mansell posed with a young Manx racer at a charity event.

The 1992 World Champion was joined by teenage racer Nickolas Ellis at UK Youth, Great Britain's leading youth work charity.

Mansell is celebrating his 25th anniversary as President of the organisation this year, with 17-year-old Ellis becoming a young ambassador for the charity. 

The Williams driver lived in Port Erin for most of his F1 career until 1995 and coincidentally Nickolas grew up in the very same house that Mansell used to live in.
