A biography for Nicolas Hamiltonhasn’t been written yet.
“I always wanted to race but I never thought it would be possible. My dad put me in a cadet kart when I was seven years old and I wasn't strong enough to hit the brake pedal.”
“The first car I drove was a BMW M3. I drove it around a circuit close to my house. We just wanted to go and have some fun and didn't think it was going to be competitive in terms of lap times. But I ended up being faster than the instructors that day.”
“Whilst I'm aiming to improve as a driver, I'm also hoping to inspire others to strive for their own personal goals, whatever their situation in life.”
“I just wanted to try and overcome my condition, with a lot of people telling me I couldn't do things and the only thing I could do was sit in my wheelchair and get bullied. Which is what I did.”
“I try to use my story to try to inspire people in all walks of life.”
