The legendary Niki Lauda, representing Ferrari, takes center stage as he competes in the Formula One World Championship. However, fate had a different plan for him that day. As the race unfolds on lap 21, tragedy strikes when Lauda's Ferrari suffers from a broken fuel metering unit. With disappointment etched across his face, we witness the moment of retirement for this talented Austrian driver. The intensity of the competition is palpable in his eyes as he realizes that victory has slipped through his fingers.
