Not exactly ideal racing weather...
Who got wet on the steering wheel here? In which racer did he sit? In which year was that and at which race?

Lola T212 - 1971 owned by Karl von Wendt -  perhaps at a hill climb  and Dieter Quester behind the wheel

Lola is right, Karl von Wendt is the owner and we see a hill climb. But it is not a 212 and the driver is not Dieter Quester.
Edit: 1971 is to late.

The driver appears to be wearing spectacles.  Is it Andrea de Adamich?
