Upper Austria legend
Sidecar world champion Christian Parzer is dead
Great sadness in the motorsport world. Christian Parzer, an Upper Austrian sidecar legend, has passed away just a few weeks before his 62nd birthday.
In 1990, Parzer scored his first world championship points alongside Klaus Klaffenböck, and the duo raced to their first podium in 1992. The highlight of Parzer's career was the world championship title in 2001, which he celebrated together with Klaffenböck, after the two had previously competed separately for several years.
"A unique person"
"Christian and I were a successful team for 20 years. Our journey together began two decades ago and took us around the world. We experienced countless adventures and shared many successes, including probably the biggest milestone of our careers when we won the sidecar world championship in 2001," "Speedweek.com" quotes Klaffenböck. "His passion, his incredible courage and his incomparable camaraderie made him not only an outstanding co-driver, but also a unique person. He will leave a lasting gap in the racing world and in the hearts of all those who knew him."
Parzer passed away on July 8 after a long, serious illness.
