Alex Zanardi used to say, “I have a little bit in my pocket.” And he always did. Fame didn’t change him—he stayed humble, real, and true to who he was. He changed lives… including mine. Rest easy, my friend.

There are people you love, and then there are the select few you LOVE. If you knew Alex Zanardi, you loved that man with a passion, an instant friend, filled with charm and child-like wonderment for life. And raging, unanswerable speed; the puzzle his IndyCar rivals could rarely solve. And the wit and mischief. It was nigh-on impossible to spend time with 'The Pineapple' without laughing--often at your own expense. All that life would eventually take from him, and yet he remained a gift. The ultimate overcomer and motivator. To summon a smile and fight through the physical pain and mental anguish to go outside and live--truly live--is to honor him. LOVED Alex Zanardi, like the millions whose lives were bettered by his humanity and excellence.

I'm glad my friend @jimmyvasser was at the Corkscrew today.

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.

Happy birthday to the biggest badass that ever drove a racecar. 🐐
