I would say AZ is not alone in doing it for the love and it's not unique in just motor sports. He is unique in his condition and his abilities even with his condition.
Sorry about the missed point.
I agree Alex Z is not alone, I saw a guy at the Cumberland, MD autox that had one arm and he was racing a RHD Lotus Esprit. I guess if you love doing something you will do it no matter what. If you get a chance read the book - Alex Zanardi: My Sweetest Victory : A Memoir of Racing Success, Adversity, and Courage.
