Not exactly a local hero but kudos for trying
The great Niki Lauda was conspicuously absent from the starting grid of the 1976 Austrian Grand Prix, and for good reason as the Ferrari driver was recovering from his horrendous Nurburgring crash which had occured just two weeks earlier. So local fans took a keen interest in another Austrian driver, Hans Binder, who was making his F1 debut with Ensign at Zeltweg.

Binder would enjoy eleven more Grands Prix outings the following year, all with Surtees, but without ever scoring a point.
