If there was one race car in Hans-Joachim Stuck’s life that was particularly close to his heart, it was probably the Porsche 962 C. “Strietzel”, as fans and friends like to call him, began his career in smaller racing events in the late 1960s. Successes in touring and sports cars, as well as in Formula 2, led him all the way to Formula 1, where he raced for smaller teams from 1974 to 1979. However, he felt much more at home in closed cars. Among other things, he won the 24-hour race at the N\u00fcrburgring three times (1970, 1998 and 2004). In 1972, he became European Touring Car Champion with Ford. Seven years later, he finished second overall in the Procar series with the BMW M1. From 1980, he was under contract to Porsche and played a key role in developing the 956 and 962 C. Successful periods followed at Audi (1988 to 1995), Opel (1996), Porsche (1996 to 1997), BMW (1998 to 2007) and VW (2008 to 2011).<\/p>\n\n\n
