Armin Hahne

Armin Hahne (born September 10, 1955 in Moers, West Germany) is a German former racing driver best known for his appearances in the World Touring Car Masters.

Hahne was known for his consistency and his less demanding driving style, which meant he would rarely retire from races.

WTCM

In 1988, Mercedes-Benz entered the newly-formed World Touring Car Masters with a four-car team consisting of Jerry Mahony, Luis Perez-Sala, Roland Asch and Armin Hahne.

Hahne's only wins of the season would come at Watkins Glen and Hockenheim, although he did also race in the 1988 Tooheys 1000, sharing the Mercedes-Benz 190E with Jochen Mass. They finished as the top Mercedes-Benz in 13th overall and 4th in Class C.

1989

Hahne remained at Mercedes in 1989 and was joined at the team by Jochen Mass, 1988 Class C runner-up Mauro Baldi and 1988 WTCM Drivers Champion Tim Harvey. Hahne would take his only win at Kyalami in a year where BMW had mostly matched Mercedes all year.
