1998 Alex Zanardi Championship Used Chip Ganassi Racing IndyCar Suit

Sparco race suit worn by Alex Zanardi during the 1998 CART season while racing for the Chip Ganassi Racing Team and has been photo matched to the first race of the season in Miami where he finished on the podium in 3rd, and later spotted in Cleveland where he won the race. The suit was likely used at over other race weekends as well.

Coming off his first IndyCar championship in 1997, Zanardi continued his reign with another year of complete domination in 1998. Out of 19 races, he achieved 7 wins and appeared on the podium a whooping 15 times. This suit is a reminder of that years dominance from Zanardi and the Chip Ganassi Racing team.

Throughout his racing career, he also raced in Formula One from 1991 to 1994 and again in 1999, with his best result being a sixth-place finish in the 1993 Brazilian GP. He returned to CART in 2001, but a major crash in the 2001 American Memorial resulted in the amputation of his legs. He returned to racing less than two years after the accident, competing in the European Touring Car Championship in 2003–2004 and then in the World Touring Car Championship between 2005 and 2009, scoring four wins.

This race winning and Championship season suit is an exceptional addition to any motorsports collection and a genuine piece of IndyCar history from one of the sport's greatest drivers. The suit comes with a Certificate Of Authenticity.
