Absolute legend.





Love this photo. So much going on and no real information about it. Wish I knew the original publication it was in.

RIP. Sorry to hear this. Met him at Rennsport IV, a true gentleman.

Man, he had a long career. I met him in 2007 and he was still working for Porsche.

His last race was Porsche's first big win. Heck of a driver but I'll remember him for all the work he did with Porsche's extensive car collection. What fun that must have been...

A big loss for the Porsche & race car world ...

(let it get translated by your browser)

If there's one day a good realtime translation in Youtube available for all non-german speaking people the "Alte Schule" (old school) podcast with Hans Herrmann is highly recommended:
https://www.youtube.com/@alte-schule/search?query=hans%20herrmann

Also all other episodes are worth a look indeed...
