Niki Lauda Livres

The riveting autobiography of Niki Lauda, three-time motor racing world champion.

Automobiles, Transportation

Niki Lauda drove a car for sport, but crossed the line between life and death and fought back to even greater glory. Then it's Lauda vs Hunt, an epic rivalry later dramatized in 2013's Hollywood blockbuster Rush, and he looks back on the strict childhood and parental disapproval that he believes gave him an 'addiction to excellence'.

The signing of reigning World Champion Michael Schumacher as Ferrari's team leader for 1996, with Eddie Irvine as his team-mate, looks set to herald a renaissance for Grand Prix racing's most famous team since Niki Lauda won in 1975 and 1977. This is the story of the revival.

This candid insight into motor racing spans 1905 to the present day. Author Louis Stanley was the owner of the BRM racing team from the late 1950s through the late 1970s, and was also instrumental in instituting stricter safety codes and developing the idea of mobile emergency medical units at tracks. His duties as a team owner brought him in direct contact with many of the greatest drivers and race personalities ever. Stanley's candid recollections are illustrated with more than 350 photographs from his personal collection, and span not only his Grand Prix involvement, but also his role at major venues like Indianapolis and Le Mans.

Niki Lauda (1949 - 2019) stammte aus einer wohlhabenden Wiener Industriellenfamilie. Zum ersten Mal sprach der Selfmade-Millionär mit einem Privatvermögen im dreistelligen Millionenbereich in diesem, seinem letzten Buch über das große Tabuthema Geld. Seine Schlüsselsätze über den Erfolg und das Leben sind nun eine Art Vermächtnis. Etwa die Regel, dass nur jene reich werden, deren Bedürfnis, Geld zu behalten, größer ist als ihr Wunsch, es auszugeben. Oder die Erkenntnis, seinen eigenen Weg zu gehen, auch gegen Widerstände.
