Leģendārais sacīkšu braucējs un titulētais paralimpietis Dzanardi pēc sadursmes ar kravas mašīnu cīnās par savu dzīvību

Dzanardi treniņa laikā ar savu para-riteni piedzīvoja sadursmi ar kravas mašīnu. Alesandro ar helikopteru tika nogādāts slimnīcā Sienā, kur viņam tika veiktas operācijas. Leģendārais sportists šobrīd ir ļoti smagā stāvoklī.

53 gadus vecais Alesandro Dzanardi piedalījies 41 F1 sacīkstē, pārstāvot "Jordan", "Minardi", "Lotus" un "Williams" komandas.

Deviņdesmito gadu vidū Dzanardi pārcēlās uz ASV, kur 1997. un 1998.gadā izcīnīja divus CART formulu čempionāta titulus.

2001.gada 15.septembrī Lauzicringas trasē Alesandro pēc briesmīgas avārijas zaudēja abas kājas. Tikai ātrā un veiksmīga mediķu rīcība pēc liela asiņu zaudējuma izglāba sportista dzīvību.

Vēlāk Dzanardi pievērsās para-riteņbraukšanai, izcīnot četrus paralimpiskos un 12 pasaules čempiona titulus.

UPDATE: Alex Zanardi is undergoing surgery after sustaining a severe head injury in an accident during one of the stages of the Paralympic handbike "Obiettivo tricolore’ relay race in Italy:https://t.co/K3khC7SbRm

Più forte di tutto.
Il più forte di tutti.
Tu che hai dimostrato che non esistono limiti, solo nuove opportunità.
Tu che hai fatto capire che vivere con il sorriso è più bello.
Siamo tutti qui ad aspettare il racconto di un’altra, ennesima, splendida vittoria.#Zanardi? pic.twitter.com/9w84LsuDum

My thoughts are with Alex Zanardi tonight. He has defied the odds his whole life, always done the seemingly impossible. When we raced against each other I realised there was never a point in any race that in his mind he was beaten.
I’m praying for another Zanardi miracle ???
