Meet Nicolas Hamilton:
In 2015, Nicolas became the first disabled athlete to compete in the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) and hopes to inspire both disabled and able-bodied individuals worldwide to show that pushing to better yourself regardless of your life situation or industry is possible.
When Nicolas was only 18 months old his parents were told that he would never walk and that his eyesight was extremely poor and would deteriorate as he got older, but the determination of the person that is Nicolas has proved the doctors wrong. The main focus for Nicolas was to make sure his life was not ruined by his condition, as he believed he was also very lucky with what he had, seeing that there are many other people with Cerebral Palsy who are affected more severely.
