Pic: F1 legend Niki Lauda gets ‘Robbie Keaned’ in caption after posing with David Beckham

The Austrian driver is dubbed ‘elderly fan’ in caption, as unrecognisable as our Robbie once was beside Becks.

The Austrian driver is dubbed ‘elderly fan’ in caption, as unrecognisable as our Robbie once was beside Becks.

Maybe it is the star power of David Beckham but it seems he has a habit of eclipsing other big names in his presence.

Last year, one of our all-time sporting greats Robbie Keane was cruelly dubbed ‘unidentified fan’ in a photo caption with Goldenballs and now, three-time Formula 1 champ Niki Lauda has suffered the same fate.

Pictured with Beckham at the Singapore GP, Heart FM identify Lauda only as ‘elderly fan’. We know he has been out of the sport for a while, but the cinematic success of Rush should have made him a bit more recognisable of late.

Guess not…
