Detailed explanation-1: -On 20 May 2019, Lauda died in his sleep, aged 70, at the University Hospital of Zürich, where he had been undergoing dialysis treatment for kidney problems, following a period of ill health, which was also caused by his lung injuries from the 1976 German Grand Prix which had gotten less over time.
Detailed explanation-2: -While many assumed that Lauda’s accident resulted from a mechanical failure, that wasn’t the case. In between the fast left curve and the Bergwerk right curve, Lauda mistimed his recovery from taking a sharp bend to the right. He lost control of the car and rammed into the fencing and earth bank.
Detailed explanation-3: -Latest. Forty-five years ago, Niki Lauda survived a horrific, fiery crash at the Nurburgring yet recovered to fight for the 1976 World Championship.
Detailed explanation-4: -The impact knocked Lauda’s helmet off, exposing his head and face to the flames which resulted in third-degree burns and scorched most of his right ear as well as the hair on the right side of his head, his eyebrows, and his eyelids.
