Fritz Fuß

Fritz Fuß is a retired Swiss sidecarcross passenger who won the Sidecarcross World Championship four times, from 1984 to 1987, as the passenger of driver Hansi Bächtold. The pair were the first combination to win the world title four years in a row. Fuß also won the Swiss national sidecarcross championship three times, in 1984, 1986 and 1987, and finished runner-up in 1985. He made his debut in the Swiss championship in 1982, joining Bächtold in mid-season, and after a sixth place in the 1983 World Championship the partnership dominated the sport. Both men retired from national and international racing at the end of 1987, Bächtold at only 31, mainly for financial reasons, and Fuß never competed in the Swiss or World Championship again.
