The motorsport world said goodbye to Niki Lauda on Wednesday, as his funeral took place in Vienna Austria.
Lauda died on Tuesday of last week, as he battled a number of health issues that have built up over the last number of months.
Lauda underwent a lung transplant operation in August, and was recovering when he picked up the flu over the Christmas period.
Tributes poured in from around the world to Monaco last weekend, the first race since Lauda's passing.

Fans queued up in Vienna to pay their respects to the three-time Formula 1 world champion, who in recent years worked as Mercedes' non-executive chairman.
Aside from his great success in motorsport, Lauda is well-known for one of the greatest comebacks in sporting history.
After being trapped in his burning car at the 1976 German Grand Prix, Lauda suffered severe injuries, and was close to death after his horrific accident.
However, just a few weeks later, he returned to the cockpit of a Formula 1 and picked up more podiums and wins - and a third world championship, before ending his F1 career in 1985.
