Niki Lauda
His Competition History
Jon Saltinstall New Hardback Illustrated
Postscript summary
Niki Lauda is best remembered for his rivalries with James Hunt and Alain Prost, especially in the 1976 F1 season when he almost died after crashing at the German Grand Prix but fought back and returned to the competition six weeks later. This illustrated volume explores his legacy more broadly, with a race-by-race account and technical details of all 328 drives in his 17-year career.
Product information
Full publisher description
When, during the tumultuous 1976 Formula 1 season, Niki Lauda nearly perished in a conflagration at the Nurburgring and then, severely scarred, courageously fought back to race again only six weeks later, the Austrian earned admiration and adulation world-wide. While the saga of that year, and the battle with James Hunt for the World Championship, has been told many times, the rest of Lauda's racing has received less attention. This new book redresses that by documenting, race by race, his diverse driving career from 1968 to 1985. Through detailed dissection of each of his 328 races, in an eclectic mix of cars, a vivid picture emerges of a hugely determined and vastly talented racer who, despite many setbacks, left a remarkable legacy. All enthusiasts will treasure this comprehensive and richly illustrated examination of Niki Lauda's entire competition history.
