McLaren commemorates Niki Lauda with bronze statue
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

McLaren Racing has commemorated three-time Formula 1 world champion Niki Lauda by unveiling a new bronze sculpture of the Austrian at the McLaren Technology Centre on the third anniversary of his passing.

The statue is the third in a series by artist Paul Oz, which includes bronze sculptures of the team’s founder Bruce McLaren and three-time F1 world champion Ayrton Senna. This trio of sculptures was commissioned by McLaren’s long-time shareholder Mansour Ojjeh, before he passed away last year.

In honour of Niki Lauda, who passed away three years ago today, we’ve unveiled a bronze statue which will reside at the McLaren Technology Centre.

Honouring and remembering Niki’s time at McLaren, the sculpture is a snapshot of the moment when he secured his third title in 1984, where he celebrated with a three-fingered salute. The piece also features his famous Parmalat cap and helmet with gloves.

Niki began his Formula 1 career in 1972 and joined Ferrari in 1974, before winning his first two titles with the team in 1975 and 1977. Despite suffering a horrific incident in the 1976 German Grand Prix, he returned to Formula 1 the same year, rightly earning him the status of a hero.
