Nordschleife, BMW M3 GTR, Hans-Joachim Stuck, turn by turn commentary + video enhanced + captions 

Not to take anything from uploader (thanks!) but Hans Stuck was the father of "Der Strietzel". Hans Stuck, in his time, almost a century ago, being just as much a real legend as much as his son Stietzel was in his time. The latter of which I as a teen and young man in the 80ies and early 90ies enjoyed so much. And 12 years ago even got eye contact with (big thing even for a grown up man). Still don't get it? Hans Stuck = Legendary Grand Prix race driver of the 1930s, driving the Auto Union Typ' C and Typ' D monsters and post war famous sports car series, etc. Hans-JOACHIM Stuck: The race driver concerned in this vid. I think Der Strietzel needs no further intro.

People here don't understand what a legend Hans is..

*in a parallel universe* Doctor: You have 11 minutes to live Hans:

When youtube decides it will recommend you 240p footage in 2019 and its wort much more than all the current 4k trash out there...

FULLY ON ZE ZROTTLE! Man I love this video.

"just warming up the engine" *engine screaming the hell outa my headphones* love it (edit): yes, straight cut gears, got it.

"And just before, pull out!" xD

An 8 minute rollercoaster ride. Imaging being in the passenger seat as Hans goes full throttle over the hills with blind corners. This looks like a terrifyingly fun experience.

No stupid music, no crazy post recording effects. Straight cut gears, engine screaming, the best track in the fucking world and a legend feeling alive talking about his passion. This is art.

He sounds so young and full of spirit while driving this record lap at the age of 53.

6:26 hans missed the gear leaver lol

separates the boys from the girls lol

Hans is so enthusiastic about racing you can hear from his voice !

1:46 gives me chills for some reason

Back when GT cars had manual transmissions 😕

Three legends in one video: M3 GTR, Nordschleife and Hans Stuck. This video is a gift to car guys everywhere.

I may have found my favorite youtube video.

Rubbish film quality, WONDERFUL film. I have met him twice, he is charming.. he actually helped me get better shots of his fathers old Auto Union in the paddock at Goodwood in 1997. A lovely man.. and some driver. I couldn't take my eyes off this. WF

When the whole commentary is twice as exciting as last 5 years in F1. He won me just because all the emotions I heard from his voice, this passion and will of sharing with viewers about this track. Jeez I wonder if F1 lap guides were that fascinating

7:41 "And from here, that's the part of the track which separate the boys from the girls" Epic comment! Haha! This video demonstrates everything someone need to know to understand why we love so much Nordschleife! Brilliant video!!

10:22 " Thanks to a great car" and a very skillful driver

@9:04 was fucking amazing. That was a veteran save right there

This is epic!!! The car, the nordschleife, the driver....best Combination ever! Of cause he didnt speak while driving, this was done later.

Imagine pushing your little Ford Fiesta to the limit and you suddenly hear a whine getting louder and louder until a M3 blasts past you.

Hi, this video just passed 100k views! So glad you guys seem to like it! I can say 'guys' because RU-vid tells me the audience is 100.00% male! (Ladies welcome though!)

That car's an absolute animal. So is the driver. Well done

I just noticed that there's a crack on the windshield lol

9:43 That takes a lot of balls to perform drafting at 275kph.

I literally got goosebumps at some parts, what a legend.

The skill this man has is unmatched. Like watching an artist create a masterpiece before your eyes

Legend says that BMW's tires are still not warm

6:27 --> "You could at least need a 1000 hp"

I literally did cried.....in happiness....all these days I thought myself that the sound from NFS MW is fake.....but I felt very happy after watching this....if I had the chance of owning one of these....I will never say no to that

At 3:17, "last time to check the seat. Pull the belt tight..." Safety first! LOVE this trip. Masterful. He knows ALL the corner names...He's home.😁

09:45 " And shortly before - Pull Out!" that one cracked me up :D

I watch this at least once a month, sometimes twice in one sitting. Fantastic driving skill and the narration is the cherry on top! This man was fortunate to race for 40+ years and has earned that legend status!

Beautiful driving. Beautiful car. Beautiful track. Beautiful sounds.

awesome. Stuck and Rohrl are my favorite drivers.

lol tins thing eats porsches like french fries

this is literally the best entertainment I've gotten in many many weeks

I've met Hans in 2019, on Solitude Revival. Awesome guy, he have his own aura. When you speak with him, you can feel, that his heart belongs to racing.

9:21 is probably my favorite part of the whole video.

8:40 fuckin balls out driving. Love the commentary lol NO LIFTING

Hans talks like he's in his favorite rocking chair while you sit at his feet with just the way he explains things and talks throughout this video. It really makes it that much more entertaining and enthralling to watch. Legendary driver in a legendary car, on a legendary circuit!

The drag race at 1:48 gave me chills.

This is a car that drove as excited as the driver

Strietzel Stuck, a legend here in Germany... and on BMW

One of the videos that have to bee watched before death!

Legendary car

OK RU-vid I'M WATCHING THE DAMN VIDEO ARE YOU HAPPY NOW

Nice! In NFS Carbon sound amazing! Listen in: 0:56, 1:49, 3:23

Flat plane crank and straight cut gears are the perfect combination. Orgasmic sound

Imagine just vibing out at 50 km/h and you see a Silver E46 M3 GTR V8 speeding into you at 250 km/h. I'd need new underwear

That not Hans that a Razor NFSMW

"Niki Lauda Memorial Corner" obviously a tongue-in-cheek joke back when, but it hits different now since 2019. RIP Niki (and Sabine).

Damn!! The downshifts at 10:19

10:19 those downshifts..

i dont know gentleman's but the the car sound the guy sound and the transmission sound it just sound like a MUSIC TO MY EARS !!!

9:46 "and shortly before, pull out!" Reminds me of sex education with my dad

even better to watch with the commentator have someone to feel excited with lol

The car sounds so amazing. The commentary was entertaining and the driving was perfect! Legendary Hans!

This guy probably beat Mission 34 on his first try 😅

This is is type of fearless driver that leads the prideful to their demise! The level of dedication to reach this level surely cannot come without the experience of time, absolutely one of the most pleasurable to get to watch

Everyone in the comments talking about how much of a legend Stuck was (and anyone who says otherwise is a twat) but I believe whoever the commentator was definitely deserves a crumb of respect as well.

God that transmission whine is crazy. Gives me shivers every time

I'm blown away that this car doesn't have a sequential. He has to bang gears, in an M3 GTR, on the Nordschleife. Now that's life.

He's a great driver but a great commentator also!

This is the perfect way to learn the track from someone whos done it longer than most yeah the M3 GTR isn't always available but generally the lines are the same weather it's a fiat 500 or a Mercedes racing truck

LEFT HANDER...RIGHT HANDER...LATE ON THE APEX...FULL ON THE THROTTLE!!!

How that gearbox survived 24 hrs🙏🏻☠️

This is my first time seeing an H-pattern sequential gearbox. Or is it? Great stuff!

This man casually went out on the ring in 2004, probably for the hundredth time with BMW’s M3 GTR, this time with a camera, having no idea that he was becoming immortalized as a legend to an entire world of nerds looking back with nostalgia they got from a game that came out a year after this, and that he basically became famous 15-20 years later for TOTAL OTHER REASONS from his gleaming racing career. Amazing. There was no youtube, no clout chasing. Just a man a car and a camera. I can only imagine what a beautiful clear day this was in Germany to go out and do this. The atmosphere. He had no idea!! It was just another run! And yet this is still the most legendary video ever. So beautiful and ironic.

Jesus ... the Sound is real! just like NFS MW! i thought the engine sound was a fictional made synthetic sound on the game but it was real all the damn time !! ... MR Hans, i salute your greatness.

A legendary car and a legendary driver!

Perfect lap of the perfect driver for this perfect car for the perfect track !

Hans “Never lift” Stuck

Does it make 1000hp with that stock V8 Because I'm not hearing any turbos or supercharger only the sequential transmission and the raw engine

I remember timing this once for just the nord section and getting around a 6:45...which would make this quicker than the Zonda R

Feels like a lap of any track with Hans driving and I'd learn everything there is to know. Coming back to this video occasionally is fun.

That was an absolute pleasure ! A hell of a ride and a tribute to one of the worlds greatest drivers, race cars and by a long way ! "The greastest race track in the world ! Commentry was a first for me and it was surprisingly interesting ! Big thanks ! Damn good post !

Striezel (Hans Joachim Stuck) was driving F-1 in the 70s... And this video is from 2004. He was 53 years old at the time, and kicking the asses of much younger drivers. He was pretty good in Sportscars Group C (World Champion together with Derek Bell in 1985) as well plus him and Röhrl kicking Ami ass in TRANSAM and IMSA, but he's always been a legend in DTM (and other touring car championships), especially on the Nürburgring.

I don't see how he gets stuck in this video

This is kind of a guilty pleasure of mine but i sometimes i like to listen to the just the audio of this video while i close my eyes and pretend Hans Stuck is in the passenger seat training teaching me how to shred the Nurburgring.

3:06 4:58 9:00

I’ve watched this dozens of times. Still get goosebumps.

Imagine being overtaken by god himself

After watching this, go and watch the on-board vid of the Porsche 919 Tribute record lap. It's like this video, but at almost 2x speed.

0:02 the gearbox is ready to roar

THIS IS THE MOST UNDERRATED VIDEO EVER!!! wondering how he did the record carrying a ton weighting couple of steel balls..

Gotta warm up tires and engine... *passes four cars, flogs engine, keeps calmly talking turn by turn* Badassery only known to select few nordschleife legends. Sabine Schmidt's(?) Was my first intro to proper badass driving through Too Gear and the Van challenge. I still rec9gnize Hans, just don't know enough yet. The Nordschleife will beat me until I die, but that wont stop me from playing grab turismo.

That perfect heel n toe rev matching every time tho...

The best helpful video for the nurburgring! I must memorise all of his commentaries on every corner.

Cant lie I admire this guy's driving skills and the car itself as a whole. I never can get over that whine that the gears make.

When you realize RU-vid corner is not called that way actually :O

Roughly 6m45s lap of just the north loop. This M3 GTR along with those crazy revving BMW.WilliamsF1 engines of early 2000s made me a BMW fan for life

anyone else just distracted by the crack in the windscreen lolololol

crazy how much the road surface changed over the years, the insane bumps are all almost completely gone.

It's easy to see how the track back in the days was harder and more bumpy

Oh my, Hahaha. In the beginning he says "no hurry, I'm just warming the tires", yet he is already driving faster than I ever have. Amazing. Thanks for the ride along.
