Federe won the Basle title for the first time last year
Roger Federer coasted into the last eight of the Swiss Indoors with a 6-1 6-4 win over Juan Martin del Potro.
The world number one took a 5-0 lead before the 49th-ranked Argentine was able to win his only game of the set.
Del Potro broke Federer to level at 1-1 in the second, but the Swiss cruised to victory to the Basle crowd's delight.
American James Blake lost 4-6 7-6 6-4 to Croatia's Ivo Karlovic, a defeat that gives Andy Murray renewed hope of reaching the season-ending Masters Cup.
