Zanardi

That Zanardi never fails to impress me! The guy is just such an outstanding man and role-model.
Check this out!

Try this one...
http://www.champweb.net/newsphp/fullnews.php?id=469

Yesterday, in Misano Adriatico, Alessandro Zanardi drove a Ravaglia Motorsport BMW 320i... completed 27 laps of the racetrack near Riccione, including a 14-lap sequence, which is equivalent to the FIA ETCC normal race distance.

...Zanardi might take the wheel of a third Ravaglia Motorsport car on the final meeting of the 2003 FIA European Touring Car Championship, to be held in Monza on October 19th.

Note that he isn't the first disabled racer getting into touring cars though - Danny Watts won the 2002 DTC (Danish Touring Car Championship) driving a specially prepared Peugeot

And for those who don't know, Watts, once a promising single-seater racer, was paralyzed from the waist down in a motorcycle crash in the late 90's.

So if Zanardi indeed enters the ETCC races at Monza, I don't see anything stopping him from doing well (as long as he gets comfortable in the car and finds a good setup)

Ah yes, of course - since I rarely see either of them on TV (thus not getting to follow their careers very closely) it's hard to keep them separated heh

Adam Saal on Zanardi's 13 laps in Germany...

Actually, you all can relive that moment next Tuesday, I believe. Check your listings. On HBO Real Sports with Bryant Gumble, Bryant came over to Germany and did a whole feature. I don't know how many of you are familiar with that show. It gets behind the scenes. Bryant himself said, “I want to do this story.” So he joined us. We worked with that group. That airs on July 22nd, which I believe is next Tuesday. It's definitely coming up on HBO. Let us know how you like it and definitely let the HBO people know how you like it. We know there's a lot more stories in our paddock that need to be told on these shows. They'll go after them with your help.

I hope for him and his family that he won't get back to continued racing, but if he does, maybe it would be the big shot Cart needs to get their image re-boosted!

Abit more info on that Zanardi special, from CART.com...

The show will first air Tuesday night July 22 at 10:00 p.m. ET on HBO and will re-air nearly 60 times in the next month across all of HBO’s family of cable networks.
