FILE - This Thursday Nov. 23, 2006 file photo shows two-time CART champion Alex Zanardi, who lost both of his legs in a crash over five years ago, inside the modified cockpit of his BMW-Sauber C24-B, as he becomes the first double amputee to test drive a Formula One car in the Cheste racetrack near Valencia, Spain. Alex Zanardi just can't stop racing. The former Formula One driver will be vying for a Paralympic medal Wednesday, Sept. 5, in paracycling _ a handcycle powered by the arms _at England's Brands Hatch race track, where he once raced cars. It's really a miracle, when you realize the 45-year-old almost died in a horrific accident in a 2001 CART race in Germany. ``For a brief moment I found myself thinking of all the things I've done,'' Zanardi said on his Twitter feed before leaving for the London Paralympics. ``I'm a lucky boy!''
