(21 May 2019) Three-time Formula One world champion Niki Lauda, who won two of his titles after a horrific crash that left him with serious burns and went on to become a prominent figure in the aviation industry, has died.
He was 70.
The Austria Press Agency reported Lauda's family saying in a statement he "passed away peacefully" on Monday.
Walter Klepetko, a doctor who carried out a lung transplant on Lauda last year, said Tuesday: "Niki Lauda has died. I have to confirm that."
Lauda twice underwent kidney transplants, receiving an organ donated by his brother in 1997 and a kidney donated by his girlfriend in 2005.
In August last year, he underwent a lung transplant that the Vienna General Hospital said was made necessary by a "serious lung illness."
