Product Description
One of the biggest names in Formula One is, of course, Nikki Lauda. The Austrian driver is a three-time World Champion and has a very famous story.
Among his fame for winning three World Championships, his fierce rivalry with James Hunt & his astonishing recovery from his life-threatening crash at the German GP.
Niki Lauda is instantly recognisable for his red caps that he is rarely seen without one.
The career of Niki Lauda was sensational, and he is often brought up as one of the very top drivers in Formula 1 history.
With his three-world titles, the Austrian also has 25 race wins, 54 podiums & a Grand Slam at the Belgium GP in 1976.
After his career as an F1 driver, Niki Lauda set up his own airline company. This hat comes from his inaugural flight to Australia in 2002.
The typically-Lauda red cap has been signed by the World Champion.
The Austrian former-F1 driver, turned airline business mogul, returned to the sport as an advisor for the Mercedes F1 team.
CEO & Team Principal Toto Wolff cites Niki Lauda's role as being a pivotal part of the team's success during the 'golden years' for the 'Silver Arrows'.
His precence is still felt on the F1 grid at Mercedes. Since the Austrian's death in 2020, Mercedes have had a red logo on their car - to pay tribute to Lauda.
Additionally, the team always have a red 'Lauda' hat in the garage.
