"Dan lives in the memory of everybody at Dallara," company president and founder Gianpaolo Dallara said. "He has been a true champion; not only because of his many victories, but and above everything else, because he has been a true and warm man to all the people he encountered.
"All people at Dallara always enjoyed meeting him in Italy and in the USA. We will honor his memory for the years to come by dedicating the Dallara IndyCar 2012 in his name. He deserves that."
