Former F1 driver and Le Mans winner Mark Blundell spent his school years outside the classroom door, told not to sit his exams and left to believe he “wouldn’t qualify as having an education”.

In this episode of Talking Dyslexia, Mark opens up about:

• Hating school but finding self-worth in racing

• How dyslexia pushed him to think differently in business and sport

• Getting diagnosed in his late 50s - and why it felt like a weight off his shoulders

• The reality of contracts, live TV, short attention spans… and still backing yourself anyway

Mark’s message is simple: if you suspect you’re dyslexic, get it checked. It’s not a big deal - and it might explain more than you think.
