Remembering Oswald Karch, born #OnThisDay in 1917. He entered one GP, the ’53 #GermanGP (pic), started by 34 drivers (the most in any championship GP - #AnorakFact). Karch qualified 34th in a Meteor-Veritas but retired on lap 11 with engine failure. He died in 2009, aged 91.

Here’s a beautiful pic of a very rare car: it’s an AFM (short for Alex von Falkenhausen Motorenbau) & the pic was taken during the ’52 #GermanGP at Nürburgring. It was the driver’s first GP, & he drove only one more. His name was Willi Heeks. He was born #OnThisDay in 1922.

Remembering Theo Fitzau, born #OnThisDay in 1923, who drove just one GP, Nürburgring ’53 (pic), at the wheel of friend & fellow driver Helmut Niedermayr’s AFM-BMW. Fitzau DNF’d. #AnorakFact: Niedermayr had raced the same car to 9th place in the previous year’s #GermanGP.

Tony Maggs’ Brabham careened off the Pietermaritzburg track into an area where spectators weren’t permitted but where 8-year-old Michael Twyman was standing, being ushered to a safe area by marshals, but too late. Maggs never got over it. Pic: his Lotus 18, #GermanGP, ’61. (2/2)

Remembering Richard Seaman, born #OnThisDay in 1913. He raced for Merc from ’37 to ’39, winning the ’38 #GermanGP. If you haven’t already bought it, today would be a good day to buy my good friend Richard Williams’ (pic) excellent biography, #ARaceWithLoveAndDeath.

I’m not big on the playing up the local stuff (cowboy hats in Texas for example) but if the #GermanGP ever makes a comeback, I’d be 100% behind all the #F1 drivers being required to arrive at the track wearing #StrumpfHosen.

Günther Bechem was born #OnThisDay in 1921. He raced an AFM-BMW in the ’53 #GermanGP, having raced a BMW-Eigenbau as Bernhard Nacke in the ’52 German GP. #AnorakFact: quite a few drivers have raced under pseudonyms but only one has entered 2 GPs under 2 different names.

Dick Gibson died #OnThisDay in 2010, aged 92. A hillclimber, he raced in 2 GPs: Nürburgring ’57 & ’58. #AnorakFact: in the ’57 #GermanGP Donavon Smith took a series of great colour pics, including this one of Gibson pushing his Cooper to a safe place after it had failed him.

#HappyBirthday André Milhoux, 97, a touring car racer who was a guest of Gordini for the ’56 #GermanGP. André Pilette was injured in practice so Milhoux took over his Gordini T32, qualified it 22nd & last, & thereby drove a one-off #F1 GP at Nürburgring. F1 was different then!

Remembering Manfred Winkelhock, who died #OnThisDay 40 years ago following injuries sustained the day before in a big shunt in the #Mosport1000km #WEC race, in a Kremer Porsche 962C. His last #F1 GP was therefore the #GermanGP, the previous weekend, in a RAM-Hart 03 (pic).

#OnThisDay in ’80 Jacques Laffite won the #GermanGP in a Ligier JS11/15, elegant in French blue unadorned by Gitanes logos (tobacco branding being banned in Germany & the UK already in those days). This shot shows off its sliding skirts to good effect - to ground effect in fact.

Dominant #GermanGP victory #OnThisDay in ’83 by Arnoux, after the engine failure of team-mate Tambay, who’d taken the pole in the other Ferrari. What a gloriously brutal machine the 126C3 was - just look at that huge rear twin-wing (at Hockenheim of all low-downforce places).

#OnThisDay in ’82, in practice for that year’s #GermanGP, Ferrari’s Didier Pironi had a massive shunt. He survived it, but he never raced in #F1 again. Could he have done? Maybe - for McLaren. It’s explained in my latest #MotorSport column. Click below.

#OnThisDay in ’66 Brabham won the #GermanGP at Nürburgring in a Brabham BT19, after pole man Clark (Lotus 33) crashed out uncharacteristically; 2nd & 3rd were the Cooper-Maserati T81s of Surtees & Rindt. I’ve pictured Rindt because it was his first #F1 GP podium & it’s a fab pic.

#AnorakFact #1: the ’67 #GermanGP featured #F1’s only all-Antipodean championship GP podium, Denny Hulme 1st (pic; Bernard Cahier), Jack Brabham 2nd & Chris Amon 3rd. #AnorakFact #2: it was also F1’s first championship GP podium featuring no Brits at all since Monaco ’62. (2/2)

Serene concentration & total control: #OnThisDay in ’56 Juan Manuel Fangio won the #GermanGP at Nürburgring, in this Lancia-Ferrari D50, from the pole, with fastest lap, leading all the way: a grand chelem. #AnorakFact: the German GP was also held #OnThisDay in ’73 & ’84.
