In tribute: Remembering the remarkable Alex Zanardi

About this episode

This episode pays tribute to the remarkable life and career of Alex Zanardi following his passing.

After the sad passing of Alex Zanardi this weekend, we thought it was only right to put together a special episode of Bring Back V10s to pay tribute to a driver that is so fondly remembered by motor racing fans all over the world. Glenn Freeman is joined by Edd Straw and Matt Beer to look back on Zanardi's incredible life and inspirational career, which included two stints in F1, championship-winning success in CART and, after the devastating crash that left him a double amputee, multiple Paralympic hand-cycling gold medals. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
