[Hunt enters Lauda's garage and sees the extent of the burn injuries to his head]
Niki Lauda:
It's that bad, huh?
James Hunt:
[Shrugs]
No.
Niki Lauda:
In hospital, I asked them straight, no bullshit, how bad my appearance would be. They said in time, it would be fine. But it won't.
[Approaches Hunt]
Niki Lauda:
I can tell, seeing your reaction. I will spend the rest of my life with a face that frightens people.
James Hunt:
You know, Niki, I tried to write you a letter at the time, to apologize. The drivers' meeting in Germany, before the race, I swayed the room.
Niki Lauda:
Yes, you did.
James Hunt:
That race should never have gone ahead.
Niki Lauda:
No, it shouldn't.
James Hunt:
So in many ways, I feel responsible for what happened, and...
Niki Lauda:
You were.
[pause]
Niki Lauda:
But trust me... watching you win those races while I was fighting for my life, you were equally responsible for getting me back in the car.
[Lauda walks away]
