Biography

Billy Monger is a racing driver turned broadcaster, whose story and of resilience and determination has moved audiences around the world. After a devastating, near-fatal crash during a British F4 race at the age of 17 resulted in the amputation of both legs, Billy refused to let go of his racing dream. Within a year, he was back on the track, competing and winning, including a famous victory at the Pau Grand Prix in European Formula 3.

Alongside his physical and mental recovery to return to a place on the starting grid, Billy had to successfully campaign for changes in motorsport regulations to allow disabled and able-bodied drivers to compete alongside each other. His return to the sport, determination in the face of adversity, and unwavering self-belief earned him the BBC Sports Personality of the Year Helen Rollason Award and he was the focus of the BAFTA-nominated BBC documentary Driven: The Billy Monger Story.

Since them Billy has become familiar presence on screen. He is a key part of Channel 4's Formula One team, also featured in the broadcaster's Paralympics coverage, and works on TNT's Formula E coverage. He also competed on BBC One’s Celebrity Race Across the World. Beyond motorsport, he continues to amaze and inspire, raising over £3million for Comic Relief in a gruelling endurance challenge and setting a double-amputee world record at the Ironman World Championships. His extraordinary story from racing prodigy, through injury, and to a life both behind the wheel and in front of the camera offers insights into resilience, high performance, and the mindset needed to overcome the toughest challenges.
