Greg Nigel Mansell (born 8 November 1987) is a British competitor in both motor racing and road cycling, currently active in cycling's Halfords Tour Series. His prior experience includes participation in the Formula Renault 3.5 Series. He is the son of Nigel Mansell, the 1992 Formula One world champion and 1993 PPG IndyCar World Series titleholder, and the younger sibling of racing driver Leo Mansell.

Motorsports

Greg and his brother Leo initiated their racing careers in karting during 2005 before advancing to single-seater competition in the 2006 Formula BMW UK championship. Over that season, Greg accumulated 24 points, while Leo did not score, in contrast to champion Niall Breen's total of 305 points.

Although their results were modest, both brothers secured drives for the final round of the 2006 British Formula Three Championship at Thruxton with Fortec Motorsport in the Invitational Class. In the first race, Greg achieved an eighth-place finish along with the second quickest lap time; however, he dropped to eighteenth in the second race due to engine overheating issues.

In 2007, Greg reached his inaugural podium by finishing third at Donington Park and added two further podium finishes during that year, maintaining consistent top-ten placements throughout sixteen races.

The Mansell brothers transitioned to the American Atlantic Championship in 2008, joining Walker Racing. Greg returned to European circuits in 2009 to compete in the Formula Renault 3.5 Series with Ultimate Motorsport and Comtec Racing teams, concluding the season ranked twenty-sixth overall. He continued with Comtec Racing into the 2010 season alongside teammate Stefano Coletti.

During 2010, while still engaged in Formula Renault events, Greg teamed up with Leo and Nigel Mansell to co-drive a Ginetta-Zytek GZ09S in select Le Mans Series races and at the prestigious 24 Hours of Le Mans. Their efforts yielded a ninth-place overall finish at the 8 Hours of Castellet; however, they retired prematurely from Le Mans following a tyre failure that caused a crash. The team recovered by claiming victory at their subsequent outing—the Hungary 1000 km—securing first place in the LMP1 class.

Cycling

Having been involved in competitive swimming since 2006, Mansell shifted focus to cycling competition starting in 2011, where he notched his first victory at the Mountbatten Circuit Race held in Swinemouth. That same year, he competed in the Halfords Tour Series representing Team UK Youth. At the British National Track Cycling Championships, he finished eleventh and eighth in the Men's Omnium event during the 2012 and 2013 editions respectively.

At the 2013 Island Games, representing Jersey, Mansell earned an individual bronze medal in the Town Centre Criterium. Additionally, he contributed to Jersey’s success by helping secure bronze medals in both the Men's Team Road Race and Men's Time Trial Team competitions.

In 2014, Mansell became part of NFTO Pro Cycling, joining former teammates from UK Youth such as Jon Mould and Josh Hunt.
