Bernd Schneider
Bernd Schneider (born 20th July, 1964 in St. Ingbert, West Germany) is a German former racing driver.
F3000
Schneider entered the International F3000 series in 1988 with the Forti Corse team. He was a regular points scorer and finished the year in eighth place - having taken one win at the Imola round.
He continued with Forti in 1989, taking a best result of third place at the season opener at Silverstone - enough for 15th place.
WTCM
1988
Schneider's F3000 efforts earned him a handful of rounds with the Works Mercedes-Benz team in the inaugural World Touring Car Masters championship in 1988. His drives came about after regular driver Jerry Mahony was released from his contract due to a string of poor performances. Schneider shared the car with former Grand Prix driver Jochen Mass and scored a pair of wins at Monza.
1990
Schneider returned to the WTCM in 1990, being signed for the Works Opel Team Irmscher outfit alongside Volker Strycek.
