Niki Lauda will also wear that suit, which was like a second skin for him on his last trip. The Austrian hero will be buried with full state honors and will be buried in the Neustift cemetery, where his mother rests. There will also be a mass attended by Austrian President Alexander van der Bellen, Chancellor Sebastian Kurz, Lewis Hamilton, Bernie Ecclestone, Gerhard Berger and Toto Wolff.

On Wednesday morning, his fans will have the opportunity to pay their respects to Niki Lauda, ​​who will lie in a coffin decorated with a laurel wreath placed in the center of the church.

Lauda's widow, Birgit, will place his racing helmet on top of the coffin; the late three-time world champion will wear a Ferrari racing suit. 
Lauda's children will give a speech for their late father in the church in Vienna's historic centre.
At the request of the family, the funeral will take place privately.
