wonder if he's had chemo or something, could also just be that skin grafts don't look good as they age

I think it's the latter. I was amazed at how good (relatively speaking) he looked five weeks after the fire, when he started racing again. But I think you are right, and that the grafts just aren't doing well with age.

Man, watching that makes me realize how well Daniel Bruhl nailed Niki's accent in Rush.
