Nicolas Hamilton was once pushed through the Formula 1 paddock in a wheelchair by his older brother, Lewis Hamilton. Years later, he stood on the podium in the British Touring Car Championship, one of the toughest racing series in the world. Born with cerebral palsy, Nic had to fight for every step, every opportunity, and every chance to prove he belonged in motorsport. Once the visor came down, he wasn't seen for his disability, he was judged as a racing driver.

In Chapter 410 of the Gypsy Tales Podcast, Nic opens up about growing up with cerebral palsy, the Hamilton family's parenting, his relationship with Lewis, dating and self worth, overcoming a gambling addiction, the financial reality of racing, earning his first BTCC podium, and what's next in 2026. This is one of the most honest and inspiring conversations we've ever had.
