Unless UA arrives early you have at most 45 minutes to change terminals and clear security.
Even widebodies have been getting apron positions so you might have to be bussed to T1 first.
And you have zero protection so rather than "do you feel lucky?" maybe the better question is "can you afford a last minute walk-up ticket to replace the flight you missed?"

Most of my non-LH wide bodies arriving at FRA have received bus gates in recent years. One hour is completely nuts.
