Default Alex Zanardi to drive an F1 car again.

Good on him I say, it takes some serious balls to get back in a race car after losing both your legs in a crash, I didn't realise he was racing again in WTCC.

Aye, specially adapted by BMW Italy, IIRC..

I saw that Lausitzring accident at the time back when I had irregular Eurosport access, would probably still raise the hair on the back of my neck if I saw it now, really nasty one.

I watched the highlights and thankfully they didn't show it. I hear it was sickening though.

Yeah, the crash was indeed horrible.

Sorry if I come across as being twisted for posting this, but I know someone is bound to be curious.

Yeah, I heard about this. Zanardi is a total legend. He's won two WTCC races so far. Anyone read his book, "My Story"? Definitaly worth a read, one of my favorites.

Zanardi has succesfully completed the test, setting a fastest lap time only a few tenths of Vettel.

The big news, however, is that he isn't satisfied with just a test - now he wants to race at Monza.
