I had the privilege of meeting Hans Stuck at (I believe) the Turkish Grand Prix in 2006. He was in the BMW Paddock area, and spoke to everyone there.

Prior to the GP I had watched his attempt to achieve 200 mph in an M6 on the Autobahn, where he didn't quite make it due to a slow car in the left lane that didn't get over. He laughed about that and shrugged his shoulders as if to say "whatcha gonna do?".

A complete gentleman, and a nice guy who was willing to talk cars as long as you cared to.
