Profile
Harry Merkel entered the 1952 German Grand Prix in a BMW but failed to qualify. It was the first and only time he drove the car and he turned down an offer to buy it after the race. The person who did buy it crashed on their first outing. Away from motorsport he was also a champion shot putter.
