Where is Niki Lauda from?
Niki Lauda was born on 22 February 1949 in Vienna to a wealthy family. However, the wealth of his grandfather, Hans Lauda, did not help Niki in his career. His family disapproved his racing ambitions and Niki had to take bank loans to fund his trainings. He had his debts cleared in 1974, when Ferrari signed him for the Formula 1 team.
