ALEX ZANARDI

THE FIRST TIME ON A KART

A driver (and a sportsman) who, thanks to his history and personality, has inspired many people. Almost everything is known about Alex Zanardi's life: his career, victories and accidents. Less well known are the emotions he experienced the first time he had the steering wheel of a kart in his hands. Although his debut was not that of a real phenomenon (like that of other drivers. Find out which ones in the article "Once in a Lifetime | The first time in karting for F1 drivers"), that day a thought made its way into his head: “Unbridled optimism led me to think that I would become a great star of motoring”. These are the words written in his autobiography, of which we report an excerpt.
