Frederick G. Wacker Jr. (born 10 July 1918 in Chicago, died 16 June 1998 in Lake Bluff) was an American racing driver. A Yale graduate and wealthy socialite, Wacker was also a jazz musician and company executive. A regular competitor in American sportscars, his privileged relations with the Gordini brand allowed him to compete in select Formula 1 events, both non-championship and in the world championship with Anglo Racing Engineering. In eight attempts at making the grid, he qualified twice, but never finished a race.
