A real sporting legend. RIP.
The first time I heard Niki Laudas name mentioned was in the school playground when I was a nipper and some older boys were telling that corny joke to each other;
‘What’s the name of that racing driver bloke, what’s his name? Niki Lauda?’
‘What?’
‘WHAT’S THE NAME OF THAT RACING DRIVER....’
:lol:
RIP fella

A great photo of one of F1's greatest rivalries. I'd like to think Lauda and Hunt are in the bar tonight having a few drinks and reminiscing about the good old days :cheers: They'll be in great company with the likes of Clark, Hill, Peterson, Surtees and Senna etc etc.
I'm going to raise a glass (or two) to them all and watch my 'Rush' DVD
Really sad news.
I always watched F1 from my early years (my Dad was a big Jim Clark fan, being a Scot) and I remember seeing Nikki's crash on the TV so clearly - probably in part because that was the year I got my car licence.
He was a great talent in a car, but more recently seemed to perform a great role for Mercedes in their GP team.
The F1 grid/pit-lane won't be quite the same without him.
