This very accident was why the FIA never allowed the use of the Nurburgring again for a Formula 1 race until the new shorter course was built some years later.

[@gunseng1984]

Not true! >>>In 1973 the entrance into the dangerous and bumpy Kallenhard corner was made slower by adding another left-hand corner after the fast Metzgesfeld sweeping corner. Safety was improved again later on, e.g. by removing the jumps on the long main straight and widening it, and taking away the bushes right next to the track at the main straight, which made that section of the Nürburgring dangerously narrow. A second series of three more F1 races was held until 1976. However, primarily due to its length of over 22 kilometres (14 mi), and the lack of space due to its situation on the sides of the mountains, increasing demands by the F1 drivers and the FIA's CSI commission were too expensive or impossible to meet. For instance, by the 1970s the German Grand Prix required five times the marshals and medical staff as a typical F1 race, something the German organizers were unwilling to provide. Additionally, even with the 1971 modifications it was still possible for cars to become airborne off the track. The Nürburgring was also unsuitable for the burgeoning television market; its vast expanse made it almost impossible to effectively cover a race there. As a result, early in the season it was decided that the 1976 race would be the last to be held on the old circuit.

[@manbroBE]

why is that ?

[@pedrojota4596]

thomas_vhs Nürburgring was (and still is) an incredibly dangerous track. Narrow road, poor visibility and the length of the circuit would result in a lot more deaths in F1. However you can drive the Nordschleife with your own car nowadays!

[@oguz4750]

The trackside marshalls also have extinguishers

[@Fivizzz]

@@oguz4750 The Nürburgring in that version was over 20km long. There weren't nearly as many trackside marshals distance-wise as there would have been on other tracks, because it was simply impossible. Also considering comms limitations at the time, there were blind areas on the track were if you were to crash it's likely no one would witness it and you could end up trapped in the forest without anyone knowing (until your team would finally notice you hadn't passed by the pits when you should have, a lap being over 7 minutes long and then they would still have to figure out where you are). The logistical challenge of the track was one of the main reason some people including Lauda himself had already voiced their concern about racing there, and Lauda's crash was the final nail in the coffin for F1 on the Nordschleife.

[@michaellorah9051]

The thought of being Lauda's pit crew, hearing the announcer's play by play of the crash, knowing full well before any name is given that it had to be Lauda. I can't even imagine the dread they must have felt.

4:45 Yellow Helmet: Harald Ertl White Helmet: Brett Lunger White and Red Helmet: Arturo Merzario Black and Orange/Red Helmet: Emerson Fittipaldi? So... Where is Guy Edwards?

[@FischerFilmStudio]

This scene is a master class in how to build tension.

[@walangchahangyelingden8252]

Music, sound effects, tight cinematography, and editing.

[@bcs1524]

I've watched this maybe 50 times. I just now noticed nikki pleading "Get me out" and "Help me" through the flames. Mad my heart ache

[@youlesie23]

Arturio Mezario, Brett Lunger, Guy Edwards, Harald Ertl. All of them, heroes.

"La única victoria importante en éste negocio, es el día en el que abandonas el paddock con vida" Niki Lauda (1949- ) Ex-piloto austríaco de Fórmula 1. Campeón Mundial en 1975, 1977 y 1984.

[@official-mb7vy]

It’s so heartbreaking when you hear him scream NIKI

[@Musique61414]

Wonderful movie. Thanks Ron!

[@3.000ft]

this brings the last name gotfried to a whole different meaning

[@AppleLauda_destroyer99942]

3:36 "Bergwerk" the section where Lauda crashed

[@hunterz9743]

Long live the king (niki lauda is the person i respect the most).

[@sumanrajsingh6804]

The F1 1970s era specially the Rivalry between James Hunt and Nikki Lauda shows the Golden Era of F1 sport 🏎️🏁.

[@pietrosal9629]

What a Great film 🔥 , really well done

[@praritaggarwal632]

The way they portray Formula 1 in movies seem to be like the scariest sport ever

[@josh-jk9gs]

used to be

[@RJSRdg]

In those days, it was! At least one driver a year died from the 1950s to the late 70s.

[@josh-jk9gs]

@@RJSRdg when we look back on those times for f1, its generally shocking to see what safety measures they actually had

[@RJSRdg]

@@josh-jk9gs Yes, there was a documentary a few years ago where Stirling Moss and Lewis Hamilton met up at Aintree and compared each others' cars and equipment. Lewis was quite shocked when he saw how flimsy Stirling's helmet was!

[@janferchhumer4419]

1:43 These front tires looks weird! But nice

[@maxiadrien1373]

Just beautiful ! Good job man

[@damarfadlan9251]

2023, and this pitstop from RUSH 2013 movie still miles faster than 2022 NASCAR PITSTOP and 2016 Ricciardo's pitstop at Monaco.

[@trulywild]

Rest in peace.. Legends never die.

[@francessweeney2308]

It shows the appalling safety provisions of the 70s, the fact that you had to rely on your fellow drivers to get you out of a burning car. Fire fighter didn't have nomex back then or very good level of first aid.

[@countluke2334]

Yes, but also a valid reason the 22km Nürburgring never hosted a Formula One race again (though that decision had been made before). How many fire crews would you need to cover such a vast track?

[@astr0o]

It doesn’t matter who you are, nobody should turn there backs on each other.

[@knownothing111]

Love the sense of speed you get while he's leaving the pit area and almost hits the guy lol

[@neilcahill5201]

Who’s watching after Grosjeans crash at Bahrain....

[@luccavanderlinden5679]

Who's here after Grosjean survived his incident at the Bahrain GP?

[@Chris-wm6wv]

Bahrain GP

[@e_leeve_lang]

i

[@zandaleaanderson16]

Me

[@aniruddhaltaccount5733]

this is the most accurate version ive seen nice mate!

[@andyba69]

I still can't watch this movie without tears

[@ljh10]

This crash was even more scarier than Grosjean's RIP Lauda you'll never be missed

[@ztommyh5378]

bro I think you meant "you'll be missed" because I miss him already

[@gabrielseurre5832]

Nurburgring 1976 : S🅱️inotto : Pronto ? Niki ? Lauda : Hallo ? S🅱️inotto : ... .... s🅱️innala

[@metalgearexcelsus]

Lauda: What tf is s🅱️inalla? S🅱️inotto: it's a meme from the future, you won't get it Lauda: ...

[@MaxJackson1975]

This is one of the best racing movies ever imagined and the most accurate that tells the story of Hunt and Lauda.

[@georgenorman4134]

This scene teaches us all who have been competitive, that sometimes it is wiser to bow out.

[@Firemarioflower]

Very impressive how Jochen Mass got from 8th on the grid to the lead in a few corners!!

[@jamescourier1545]

Niki Rest in Peace. Always a champion.

[@andrewhillis9544]

I WOULD RATHER HAVE F1 IN THE 1970's THAN WHAT IT HAS BECOME TODAY ! ! !

[@badcobra7568]

So many deaths between the 50s and 70s

[@andrewhillis9544]

AYRON SENNA WASN'T KIDDING WHEN HE SAID, "THE CAREER OF A FORMULA ONE DRIVER IS VERY SHORT ! ! !"
