Synopsis
LAUDA tells the extraordinary story of Niki Lauda, the three-time World Champion who became one of Formula One’s greatest and most influential figures. From his rise to the pinnacle of motorsport and near-fatal 1976 crash to his remarkable return to racing, Lauda repeatedly defied expectations. Beyond the track, he reinvented himself as an entrepreneur and airline founder, fighting to uncover the truth behind the fatal air crash that nearly destroyed his airline. Told through previously unheard interviews with Lauda himself, alongside his family, rivals and some of the biggest names in Formula One, the film explores the man behind the legend.
