Nicolas Hamilton’s remarkable story is the subplot to the more widely known narrative of his multiple World Champion brother Lewis, but it is no less fascinating. Diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy as a baby, Nic has fought all his life to prove he is not defined by his disability. Hear him describe in his own words how he has overcome physical pain, bullying, societal stigmas and conventional car set ups to pursue his dream to be a professional racer. Plus what it was like growing up in a mixed race, working class family in Stevenage before his brother went on to become a household name and global brand. Plenty more amazing guests on the way.
