'Alex Dias Ribeiro' (born in Belo Horizonte, November 7, 1948^[1]) is a former racing driver from Brazil. He participated in 20 Formula One Grands Prix, debuting on October 10, 1976. He scored 0 championship points.
At the 2002 Brazilian Grand Prix, Ribeiro was almost killed. During the morning warm-up on race day Sunday, Enrique Bernoldi crashed his Arrows in Turn 2. When Ribeiro, the driver of the Medical Car, went out to check on Bernoldi, he opened the door to the car. Just as he opened it, Nick Heidfeld came along in his Sauber, and smashed into the open door. Both Ribeiro and Heidfeld were uninjured.
Ribeiro was perhaps best known for his public proclamation of faith in the form of 'Jesus Saves' slogans on his Formula One cars:

He subsequently went on to perform Chaplaincy at the F1 events he attended as the driver of the Medical Car and is arguably the most accomplished driver in the 'Christians In Motorsport' group:
