🙏🙏🙏

One of my favorite drivers and favorite people of all time.  Wasn’t aware of his hand bike crash and medical problems.   Very much hoping for his recovery, but it doesn’t sound promising.  Will be praying.

He's been such an inspiration since his horrible crash.  I adore and admire the guy. 

Zanardi Strong!

I was watching the race in '01. The single worst crash I can recall other than Stan Fox in '95.

Alex has been a hero to me (and I rarely use that word) since he came out of the hospital after the '01 crash. He said he'd drive a race care again and damned if he didn't. And well at that.

Good luck Alex.
