Hans-Joachim 'Strietzel' Stuck (1 January 1951 - Present): German racing driver from Garmisch-Partenkirchen who competed in 81 Formula 1 Grands Prix between 1974 and 1979 for March, Brabham, Shadow, and ATS, achieving two podiums and 29 championship points. The son of pre-World War II Grand Prix ace Hans Stuck, he was nicknamed 'Strietzel' by his grandmother who thought the newborn resembled a Stollen cake, and later earned the nickname 'Regenmeister' (Rainmaster) for his wet-weather driving ability. While moderately successful in F1, notably leading the rain-affected 1977 US Grand Prix at Watkins Glen for Brabham-Alfa before being replaced by Niki Lauda in 1978, Stuck achieved far greater success in sports car and touring car racing.
He won the World Endurance Championship for Drivers in 1985 and the 24 Hours of Le Mans twice (1986, 1987) with Porsche, and claimed the Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft in 1990. He retired from competitive racing after the 2011 Nürburgring 24 Hours and served as president of the DMSB, Germany's motorsports federation.
