A ballsy move, yes, but it would only have been a brilliant move if he'd stayed on the track.
Still, Zanardi is clearly a racer and you have to give him credit for even trying to pass there. I guess in his mind it was "If I pull it off, it's good. If I stuff it up, who cares". I wonder whether he even thought he could keep it on the track? Much as I hate penalties deciding the outcome of a race, this is an instance where I think it's justified.

Was it 'gutsy' or 'ballsy'? Here is a solid definition...
Guts vs Balls
There is a medical distinction between
“Guts” and “Balls”, according to the British military.
We've heard colleagues referring to people with “Guts”, or with
“Balls”. Do they, however, know the difference between
them? Here’s the official distinction; straight from the
British Medical Journal: Volume 323; page 295.
GUTS - Is arriving home late, after a night out with the lads, being
met by your wife with a broom, and having the “Guts” to ask:
“Are you still cleaning, or are you flying somewhere?”
BALLS - Is coming home late after a night out with the lads, smelling
of perfume and beer, lipstick on your collar, slapping your
wife on the bum and having the “Balls” to say:
"You're next, Chubby."
I trust this clears up any confusion.
