Summary

Strietzel, whose full name is Hans-Joachim Stuck, has just turned 70. Unbelievable! He was still racing in the DTM and Formula 1 just a short time ago. A good reason to take a look back, remember some of the special milestones of a racing driver's career and show some racing photos from back then.

Preview (beginning of the article)

Strietzel Stuck from Grainau is now a dual German-Austrian citizen and has lived with his wife Uschi in Tyrol in the Kaiser Mountains since 1989. During his active career, he drove pretty much everything that had four wheels. He drove in Formula 1 from 1974 to 1979, finishing on the podium twice, in 1977 in his two "home races" in Germany at the Hockenheimring and in Austria at the Östereichring, both in a Brabham Alfa-Romeo. At the US GP in Watkins Glen, he unfortunately retired while leading. The clutch cable broke early on, causing the rear axle to lock briefly during a gear change and he spun off the track.
