        Well done Zanardi

        Alex Zanardi has driven again? Good luck to him, that's all I can say.
        If Douglas Bader can fly a Spitfire, fight and could still get around in the 40's with 2 tin legs, then there's no reason why a determined guy like Zanardi can't do the same.

        Great news that he is recovering well and he deserves all the luck in the world after such a terrible accident. I really can't imagine how it would feel to one minute be a top racing driver and then the next you lose both your legs.
