Before the Monaco race, all drivers along with dignitaries and a number of Lauda’s contemporaries and peers will each hold a red cap, during a minute silence as a tribute.

Fans where invited to to wear a red cap, display a message on the banner, or just applaud, while those watching from the yatchs/boats in the harbour were encouraged to sound their klaxons.
