Former F1 star Alex Zanardi has learnt to walk again with the help of his new prosthetic limbs.

Zanardi lost both legs in a horrendous ChampCar accident at the Lausitzring last September. He has since made a stunning recovery.

He stunned onlookers by standing up at an Italian awards ceremony at the end of last year and has since learned to walk again with his new artificial limbs.

He told the Gazzetta dello Sport: "The worst is behind me, now. It was not so easy, it took much patience to learn the use of the prosthesis.

"Now I will have to come back to the clinic just for normal controls and to be sure I make proper use of my prosthesis."

Zanardi also overcame an enormous psychological barrier when he went shopping last week.

He said: "For the first time since the incident I bought a pair of shoes. Sport shoes."

That's really nice... :)

But I'm wondering why that bloke in the background is giving Schumi such an evil look? Is that you LS? ;-)

LOL, but if you watch the F1 and you see MS in 'non-uniform' you can see his dress sense is very very bad anyway, that suit is GOOD for MS standards ;)

There was an article in F1 magazine showing MS in some of his dodgier outfits. Boy he really has bad dress sense. I wish I still had it so I could post it here.
