Fritz Grau (8 November 1894 – 5 July 1945)[1] was a German bobsledder who competed in the 1930s. He won two bronze medals at the FIBT World Championships (two-man: 1933, four-man: 1930). Grau was seriously injured, along with teammates Albert Brehme and Helmut Hopnaann, shortly before the 1932 Winter Olympics. He also finished sixth in the two-man event at the 1936 Winter Olympics in Garmisch-Partenkirchen.
