Hans-Joachim Stuck qualifies his Shadow DN9-Ford in 20th position for the 1978 Swedish Grand Prix, held at Anderstorp. In the race, won by Niki Lauda (Brabham), he finished in eleventh position, albeit 2 laps down.

Despite signing experienced drivers and using the new Shadow DN9 chassis, the team and drivers experienced a “stuck” or poor season, failing to achieve strong results with only three top-five finishes for the team overall, and the team eventually struggled with sponsorship and was absorbed into another team by 1980.
