Feldbergrennen

The Feldbergrennen was an automobile and motorcycle race which took place between 1920 and 1954 on various courses in the field of the Großer Feldberg, 879 m (2,884 ft) above sea level in Hesse, Germany.

Other winners at the Feldberg race from the 1930s included Paul Pietsch with an Alfa Romeo as well as Hans Stuck and Bernd Rosemeyer with an Auto Union.

At that time, almost all top-class German riders competed, including the DKW-drivers Hermann Paul Müller and Ewald Kluge.

Walter Reichert from Ingelheim am Rhein won the race over 13 laps or 151.68 km (94.25 mi) in 1:25:56.7 hours, averaging 105.0 km/h (65.2 mph); following were Fritz Kläger from Freiburg im Breisgau and third-place Hubert Luttenberger on Adler.

World Champion Eric Oliver from England crashed during the sidecar race, so that the first four places went to BMW, the number one to Wilhelm Noll and Fritz Cron, with an average 105.2 km/h (65.4 mph), followed by Fritz Hillebrand and Manfred Grunwald, Willi Faust and Karl Remmert, and Walter Schneider and Hans Bouquet.
