With the new decade starting, despite a slight delay to the 2020 Formula 1 season, it seems an ideal time to look over who comes out on top as the greatest driver of each decade.

Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff says the passing of Niki Lauda “just overshadows everything else” having seen his squad secure the 2019 Formula 1 world drivers’ and constructors’ titles for a historic sixth consecutive year.

Lewis Hamilton believes his 2019 Formula 1 world title triumph has been his hardest at Mercedes taking on challenges both on and off track.

Mercedes has confirmed Markus Schafer has been appointed as the new non-executive chairman, replacing Niki Lauda in the role, as part of wider shake-up of its board of directors.

Carmelo Ezpeleta, CEO of MotoGP commercial rights holder Dorna Sports, has sent his condolences to the family of Niki Lauda. The Austrian, 'a true legend and one of the biggest characters in motorsport', passed away on Monday evening at the age of 70.

Tributes across the motorsport world are being made to triple Formula 1 world champion Niki Lauda following his passing at the age of 70. Lauda passed away on Monday evening surrounded by his family in Austria which has seen the sporting world paying its respects to an icon of F1.

Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff has led the tributes to Niki Lauda who passed away on Monday and says both F1 and his squad has “lost a guiding light” in the three-time world champion.

Niki Lauda has returned to hospital suffering with flu over the Christmas period having undergone a double lung transplant last summer.

Mercedes has celebrated becoming only the second team to win five consecutive Formula 1 world drivers’ and constructors’ championships after returning to its Brixworth and Brackley factory bases and ran a special Niki Lauda tribute.

After his first taste of driving a Formula 1 car, Marc Marquez says pulling off a switch to four-wheel racing “will be a serious idea for me in a few years’ time”.

Niki Lauda has become the latest high profile name to wade into the grid girl debate in Formula 1 by calling it “a decision against women” and feels banning grid girls in the sport won’t provide any benefits.

Niki Lauda has been honoured with the lifetime achievement award at this year's Laureus World Sports Awards last night in Berlin.
