Hi
Did you notice that Alex Zanardi won a Gold medal yesterday and goes for another one tomorrow.

Hi
What amazed me, after reading his wiki page, was that he had actually gone back to multiple forms of track racing, in adapted cars, including the contact sport that is Touring Cars.

He certainly tries to live life to the full and must be an inspiration for young drivers and others.
