Nikki lauda dead at 70

Terrible news but considering his injuries from the crash in 76 its a miracle he lived this long.
 
That's true ! If a crash like this where to happen today I don't think that the driver is gonna be burn as bad as lauda was !

Fire still happens but the fuel systems are much more puncture resistant and better placed. The drivers of that era and even into the late 80s were most paranoid about fire, not so much the actual crash. Jackie Stewart said lots of them would carry wrenches in the car so they could unbolt the steering wheel in their own wreck or that another drivers.

Look up David Purley trying to save Roger Williamson
