BR Mansell Engineering, currently known as Aeroflot BR Mansell Engineering for sponsorship reasons, is a British motor racing team running under a Russian licence that was founded by former Formula One driver Nigel Mansell.
History
In 2018, Mansell - along with Russian businessman Boris Rotenberg - entered his eponymous team into the Formula One World Championship, operating out of a facility at Donington Park race circuit in Leicestershire. The team's drivers were Russian Artem Markelov and Briton Bradley Dagnall - son of former Arrows teammate Chris Dagnall. Over the course of the years, the team became increasingly more Russian influenced - replacing Dagnall with Sergey Sirotkin and taking on a Russian racing licence a year later in 2019.
In 2020, Markelov took the team's first podium finish with a third place in the Argentine Grand Prix. Three races later, Markelov scored the team's first win at the Turkish Grand Prix.
2021 saw the team switch to Toyota power units - bringing in promising Japanese driver Sho Tsuboi as part of the deal. Markelov took a second career win in the Argentine Grand Prix, with Tsuboi close behind for the team's first 1-2 in their history. One race later in India, Tsuboi scored his maiden win.
