💔 Lewis Hamilton: "It is private, but I hit the wall very hard last year in testing and knocked out a disc in my neck, which went into the nerve,"
"I couldn't do a lot for like nine weeks. I was just having chiropractors every day, physio every day. I couldn't sleep. Was on painkillers and had to get injections"
"I did everything I could to try to fix it. So that's that's what I was basically trying to live with, which is not easy in the seat position that you're sitting in."
Well, well 👀

Back in 2006 - BMW Sauber provided Alex Zanardi with adaptive controls to drive a Formula One car once again.
Zanardi was a true inspiration, a hero to many and all round fantastic and humble person. He had the most positive outlook on life and lived & loved every moment of it.
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.
When Alex Zanardi did THAT race-winning overtake on Bryan Herta through the famous Corkscrew at Laguna Seca in 1996! 😲
Much debated, forever revered. Classic IndyCar!
