Christian Mansell’s Supportive father, Anthony Provides Him Sponsorship Through His Company!
Australian racing driver Christian Mansell receives strong support from his father, Anthony Mansell, who has played a significant role in his rise to prominence in the sport.
The racer previously secured third place in the 2021 GB3 Championship and 2022 Euroformula Open and recently finished fifth in the 2024 Formula 3 Drivers’ Championship.
Additionally, his father supported the rising racer, providing moral and financial support.
Although Christian’s father was known to those who follow him online, many speculated about his possible relationship with Formula One World Champion Nigel Mansell.
Since both racing drivers share the same last name and profession, fans speculated that Nigel might be Christian’s father or that they were related by blood, but they are not related.
Christian’s Parents Provide Him With Crucial Emotional And Financial Support
Born on February 9, 2005, to Anthony Mansell and Megan Mansell, Christian is just 19 years old and has already established himself as a celebrated figure in the racing world.
When Christian was younger, his parents encouraged him during his karting events, eventually leading him to race cars at speeds of up to 200 km/h.
Despite his successful career, Christian has openly shared his struggles with type-1 diabetes and his refusal to let the condition hinder his performance on the race track.
In an article by AMSL Diabetes, the race car driver’s parents have discussed their son’s journey with diabetes, highlighting the progress and success he has achieved despite the challenges.
Anthony is the Managing Director at AJM Transport NSW PTY LTD in New South Wales, Australia.
In addition to supporting the Formula 3 driver’s health condition, his father’s company also sponsors him.
From an early age, Christian’s parents ensured he never felt limited by his illness, and his resilience has been a source of inspiration for many.
Moreover, the 19-year-old’s parents have been attentive and supportive of every one of his wins and have supported him since the beginning.
In a recent LinkedIn post, Anthony shared a picture of his son celebrating a win and expressed gratitude to his company for its sponsorship.
The Mansell family’s support nurtured him and helped shape him into the prominent figure he is today in the racing car industry.
