Quite the stat
Chip Ganassi Racing and the whole racing community has lost more than a legend — the world has lost one of its most extraordinary human beings.
Alex Zanardi was the definition of resilience, courage, and grace. He was integral in shaping Chip Ganassi Racing into what it has become. From the highest levels of motorsport to his incredible achievements beyond it, he showed us all what it truly means to fight, to adapt, and to live with purpose. His strength inspired millions, but it was his humility, kindness, and unwavering positivity that made him unforgettable.
He didn’t just overcome adversity — he redefined what was possible.
Rest in peace, Alex. Your legacy will continue to push us forward, on and off the track.
"A wonderful friend, a talented driver and a very special man of immense charisma and boundless courage"

L’Italia perde un grande campione e un uomo straordinario, capace di trasformare ogni prova della vita in una lezione di coraggio, forza e dignità. Alex Zanardi ha saputo rimettersi in gioco ogni volta, affrontando anche le sfide più dure con determinazione, lucidità e una forza d’animo fuori dal comune. Con i suoi risultati sportivi, con il suo esempio e con la sua umanità, ha dato a tutti noi molto più di una vittoria: ha dato speranza, orgoglio e la forza di non arrendersi mai.
A nome mio e del Governo rivolgo un pensiero commosso e la più sincera vicinanza alla sua famiglia e a tutti coloro che gli hanno voluto bene.
Grazie di tutto, Alex.
The gentlest, kindest man. And my god, he was fast. He inspired millions and impacted the lives of everyone fortunate enough to meet him. He was universally adored. My thoughts are with Daniela and Niccolo on their unfathomable loss. Alex was the best. The absolute best.
