Blur looks; under than skin

There are a couple of things wrong in one paragraph of "Today's kart racers owe it all to Mario" in 24H Vancouver on June 10, 2010. I included the top paragraph for you to see that the writer did know to italicize Blur, but I guess he forgot in the very next sentence. Then, I'm going to guess that under than skin is supposed to be under that skin, but it'd be better if the writer wrote what he meant.
