Hans Herrmann was a German established professional racing driver who competed in Formula 1 between 1953 and 1961, driving primarily for Porsche across his 18 starts in the championship.[1]
Herrmann's Formula 1 career ran across eight seasons with a single podium finish to his name. He finished 12th in the championship standings in 1961, his final season of indexed racing. In the field he raced, which mixed amateur and semi-professional entrants with graded professionals, Herrmann was closely matched with established professionals Stirling Moss and Maurice Trintignant, both regular opponents. He finished ahead of Jim Clark, who would go on to win the Formula 1 championship twice, on one occasion. His six starts for Mercedes came in a period when that team fielded multiple drivers and would later become one of the sport's dominant operations.[2]
