Mansell was paid $900,000 per race that year.
Which I find hilarious, as Mansell was no where near Hill that season.

And then you have Button who was one of the highest paid drivers on the grid and he achieved sod all compared to Kimi and his $1million retainer.
Mansell still did good a job IMHO, average by his standards but a good result if it was an average driver. As Alesi said at the time, "not bad for an old man"
