There’s some sort of bodywork missing for the filming process, but yes they were terribly dangerous. Their feet were ahead of the front wheels. Most drivers didn’t go 100% all out all of the time back then due to the dangers with those cars.
They removed the cockpit fairing to fix the camera. (and probably the cameraman). Obviously, Lauda is driving at a speed that is safe for both of them.
I didn't know about the "legendary coldness", but for a driver to suffer such a shocking accident, and then continue to compete later that year, then win the following year, and get a 3rd title in 1983, Lauda has to rate as one of the bravest, most determined, and best drivers ever. A true legend of the sport, no less.
Worst of all time? Kidding? This man nearly died, got back in his car and won again...and again...and again...He's a true hero and I so hope he's now watching the races with Ayrton from up above.
Damn, there is nothing in front of him, just the steering wheel !
The drivers were super exposed back then, seems more apparent in this without the front body work on the car

@@ederbrunodossantos2219 oh ok, i see that now, thank you.
Lauda era um monstro de piloto de formula1. Esse Austriaco nasceu duas vezes depois do acidente de Nuburgring para ser. Tri.campeao.
Thanks for sharing
No problem!
Lauda's legendary coldness will always be an inspiration.
In what way?

Andando na boa... sem pisar fundo ! mas valeu... saudades de Niki !
Smooth operator
Remarkably stable shot, considering the era.
agreed! I've always loved the look of F1 footage when they used cinema camera's for their onboards.
Merci pour le partage
de rien
Lauda ! ❤
Rare is good
Indeed! I’ll see if I’m able to source more rare onboard footage
エステルライヒスリング、現レッドブルリンクの改修前の姿か。貴重なものが見られたな。
Yes it is! The Circuit once known as Zeltweg or Österreichring before it became the modern day RedBull Ring
Österreichring was then knew as Zeltweg.
Nope, that's the even older circuit, this is the Österreichring

@@ajst784 Thanks, I didn't know its prior name. Awesome track!
it’s a great track indeed
Aerodynamics or safety anyone? 😅
Normally there would be bodywork around the cockpit for the aero but it was just thin fiberglass so it added nothing for safety...
@douglasmeis7482 imagine suggesting HALO back then... You'd be so ridiculed... 😁
at least he's been wearing a helmet...what more could you ask :D
