Fergus Kenrick Anderson (9 February 1909 – 6 May 1956) was a Scottish professional motorcycle racer. He was a two-time Grand Prix World Champion.〔(Fergus Anderson career statistics at MotoGP.com )〕 His name appears on the Nazis' "most wanted" list drawn up prior to their intended invasion of Britain (published online as "Hitler's Black Book" by Forces War Records.) Anderson was one of the first riders from Great Britain to make his living racing motorcycles on the European continent. In 1950 he signed with Moto Guzzi and competed in the 250cc class. He convinced Moto Guzzi to build a 350cc bike, initially of 320cc but later a proper full 350. He raced to the 1953 world championship in the bike's first year of competition. He repeated this feat as 350cc champion again in 1954. His 350cc world championship wins were the first by a non-British bike. He retired from racing to become Moto Guzzi's team manager, but quit over a dispute over having a freer hand at running the team. He returned to racing and was offered a ride by the BMW factory. He was killed in 1956 after being thrown from his bike at a race in Belgium at Floreffe.〔(Fergus Anderson career profile at Motorsport Memorial )〕 == Motorcycle Grand Prix results == 1949 point system Points system from 1950 to 1968 5 best results were counted up until 1955.
