Georg Hack, a German speedway rider, died on November 2, 2026, aged 76.
Born in Landshut on February 20, 1950, he represented the West German national speedway team, earning 26 international caps. His career encompassed individual speedway, long-track racing and team competition, with appearances in the finals of championships across all three.
Representing West Germany, Hack reached the final of the 1982 Individual Speedway World Championship. He also rode in the World Team Cup final in 1981 and 1982, competing in consecutive editions of the team event. Long-track racing brought a sustained run of championship appearances: Hack reached the final of the Individual Speedway Long Track World Championship eight times between 1977 and 1985. His international record thus extended across multiple seasons and racing formats, from repeated long-track finals to the world-level individual and team contests. The 1982 season placed him in both an individual world championship final and a team final, while his long-track appearances spanned the years from 1977 to 1985.
