LAUDING LAUDA

A Ferrari owner has enlisted the help of the Italian sports car manufacturer’s Tailor Made personalization program to build this one-off 458 Italia honoring legendary Formula One driver Niki Lauda. The build of the car coincided with the September launch of the new movie Rush, which tells the story of the epic rivalry between Lauda and James Hunt during the 1970s. The Tailor Made 458 Italia honoring him features a classic red paint scheme but with a white roof and the Italian flag going longitudinally across it. The final exterior touch is a set of gold wheels. The colors mimic the livery that featured on Lauda’s Ferrari F1 race car. In those days, Ferrari took three consecutive Constructors’ titles and two Drivers’ titles thanks to the efforts of Lauda.
