Born in Germany, raised in Austria, Rindt moved from Formula Junior to Formula One in 1964, spending uneven years at Cooper before landing at Brabham in 1968 and Lotus in 1969. The Lotus cars were fast and fragile, and Rindt often voiced concerns about their safety, but it was there he found speed: his first win came at the 1969 United States Grand Prix. In 1970, racing the new Lotus 72, he won five of the first nine rounds. During practice at Monza on 5 September, a brake shaft failed, he spun into the guardrails, and a poorly installed crash barrier gave way. He was pronounced dead en route to hospital. His rival Jacky Ickx couldn't score enough points in the remaining races, so Rindt took the championship posthumously. He left a wife, Nina, and a daughter, Natasha.
