On the fundamental group scheme of rationally chain connected varieties

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. Chambert-Loir proved that the \'etale fundamental group of a normal rationally chain connected variety over $k$ is finite. We prove that the fundamental group scheme of a normal rationally chain connected variety over $k$ is finite and \'etale. In particular, the fundamental group scheme of a Fano variety is finite and \'etale.
