Damn that's bad, I've never seen that close up shot. I'm just glad that he's alive.

This shows why professional auto racers get paid as much as other sports entertainers. Its the chance you take every time you're in a car.

Its a miracle he survived.

Are there rules that would not allow someone without lower legs to drive a race car? I remember a guy that raced go karts with 1 leg. He had break controls on the wheel. If the feet parts were all drive by wire....he could have it all on the wheel and still race. Would you want to get in a car again?

Devastating

Wayne Rainey, former F1 motorcycle champ, races SuperKarts.
He has no use of his legs.

I'm sure one day Alex will return to some form of competition...it's in his blood.
