The older I get the more I realize how right Nikki was. He had a wonderful wife, a good life, a good job, achievements, respect, and he was the best at what he did. No bigger role model than him.

You can have all those things without purposely secluding yourself from the world and relationships

Nikki was NOT RIGHT. firstly to label EVERYONE an arsehole without knowing them is the true disrespect here. To pretend to know what anyone else is all about is a huge sign of arrogance and ignorance. What if some of these people haut want to make friends?? Secluding yourself is one path, but to label anyone for not giving you respect by default for being good at something is called EGO, and is the height of stoopidty. James is an adult, how he chooses to lament his life is his expression of freewill and not Nikki's judgement. James (deceased) regardless of being a champion, would have grown up with laughter, experience, stories and companions even if they were all single serving companions... Most people would acknowledge that as healthy rather than a hermit based, isolated lifestyle.. I hope Nikki's trophies hug him at night when he realises he pushed everyone away. You're wrong, Nikki is wrong. The older I get the more I understand that being a true alpha male means to be yourself unapologetically... Live, laugh. Don't ask anyone for permission. You're obviously a beta human with that narrow perspective.

@@ciaranoconnell4783 yeah niki was just brutally honest, it’s way he’s a multi world champion and hunt only the once. Also the marriage was never sustainable, it takes more than money and looks to keep a marriage alive. You need to invest your time and put effort, if you don’t feed you dog then it dies, you don’t put it toilet and it’s mess the house up. Same thing with the marriage, but from both sides. Niki is a great role model, people around him didn’t like him because he wasn’t into bullshit but honestly I couldn’t have seen hunt bouncing back like niki did.

This hurts Hunt much more than outright hatred from a guy he doesn't respect. That he can dismiss as mere bitterness from a jealous nobody. But this? He knows Lauda has a point. Getting pointed but constructive criticism from a rival he likes and respects hurts much more because he knows he's on him and he feels he is disappointing himself AND Lauda for not fully realising his potential. Added on top of that is the fact much of Hunt's life is empty and both of them knows it without Lauda needing to outright say it. Some part of Hunt knows deep down all those parties he goes to and the hanger ons he spends time with aren't really important or truly fulfilling his life in any meaningful way. Lauda is more happy going home with his beautiful wife than all the parties Hunt goes to as he has a distant relationship with a mostly absentee wife. Deep scene. Of the surface, it's Hunt who has everything going for him in life but in reality, it's Lauda who's winning in every way that matters.

@killermonk472 ай бұрын
You are right about Lauda's opinions but you mistake Hunt for some nice guy that just had poor circumstances. Whereas in reality if you watch this movie, at the end scene Nikki himself says that, hunt wanted that kind of lifestyle, one of the reasons why hunt became a broadcaster, the sight of which left Lauda "baffled" in his own words. So Hunt was the way he was because of his own choices, he was just pissed that he couldn't get Lauda rattled by saying no one likes him. He was a typical brit who thought only his way of life was okay and watching nikki do well with the way nikki lived his life irked Hunt a lot. But to be fair to hunt he was a decent guy and did develop a lot of respect for nikki through the course of this movie

Lauda won 2 world champions more then hunt and is still alive today. Lauda was the really big winner in the way. Shame hunt didn't see it that way back then, maybe he could have achieved more and still been alive today putting more in to motorsport and f1 like lauda still is.

maybe if he did listen to him he wouldnt have gotten even that far . a man is who he is and no1 can change that besides himself. Hunt was a guy who guided mostly by his emotions and most of the time did what he wanted without thinking what might happen next. Lauda was kinda the opposite , he was thinking a lot , but his thinking was creative. Hunt was the guy that he can have nothing and smile, Lauda could have everything and being sad or not rly enjoy it. At the end yes Lauda is better and he lived more, but does he enjoyed life like Hunt did, or he sacrifice himself to the cause of being no1 ?

I believe that in this scene none of them was right and none of them was wrong. For those who think that James died without achieve much, that is just stupid. He achieved much more than most of us, he could achieve more of course, but he didnt waste all his life to a job. Unfortunately, to the human kind the best years to live your life to the fullest are the same to make yourself successful. James manage to do both, Lauda didnt. He make himself a lot more successful, but he didnt have the good the life troughout... James had the good life, but he could have been much more successful. For me, two of the best F1 pilots ever. I wish Lauda never had that accident, and that James never died that young. Two role models in their own way. Much more than just pilots. Work, ethics, passion, believes, skills, charisma in two of the greatest.

If you consider the real-life-context, I'd say sort of a comment. The movie doesn't do Lauda justice there - he said in an interview that he in fact partied much less than James Hunt, but also grinned and added "But I did like 20% of his life. Just not before a race. After a race, absolutely. After all, I could die next race too."
