In 2017, British Formula 4 racer Billy Monger had a horror crash which left him without the use of his legs, However, determined to make a return and not let his injuries hold him back, Monger has since returned to the wheel of a car and in doing so, has created an inspiring story.
Below you can see him talk about what his life has been like since his accident. He has struck up a strong friendship with four-time world champion Lewis Hamilton, who Monger admits is an inspiration to him.
"He’s made a big impact on me. When I was 8 years old, watching Lewis win World Championships, I wanted to be like him. I wanted to be an F1 World Champion. When I went to the British Grand Prix with him, he was everything I’d hoped he’d be. He was really supportive, he gave me as much as time as he could. He just encouraged me to keep going with my dreams."
