Niki Lauda passed away today.
Absolute legend on and off the racetrack and one of the greatest and gutsiest sportsman of all time
A bit of a miracle he lived this long, considering his injuries. The movie Rush was excellent with Lauda as one of the main characters
There was a lot of bullshit in that film , him and Hunt were apparently mates and even flatted together at one stage .
It was still a worth watching though

Agree totally. Proof that those at the very top, work the hardest.
@antipodean and that photo's his good side.

Hard bastard tho, refusing to have his ears reconstructed so he could get back racing faster, trying to race with his eyelids (from behind the ear skin) working but no tear ducts - couldn't blink!
not to mention suffering internal burns in his lungs - a very hard bastard and racing legend
He raced again only a few weeks after the accident didn't he? Absolutely amazing fella. Sad that he's gone but I bet every day was a bonus.

Too soon for the joke about him and Hotlips Houlihan ?
I am not sure I know the joke and today is tomorrow so go for it!
What did Niki Lauda and Hotlips Houlihan have in common?
They were both fucked by Major Burns.
