Billy Monger is a speaker who brings a powerful message of resilience, mindset, and transformation to every stage he steps on. Known for his incredible journey in motorsport and beyond, Billy shares the raw, authentic story of how he overcame unimaginable adversity and emerged as a trailblazer in both elite sport and media. With a natural charisma and disarming honesty, he connects deeply with audiences—from corporate teams to school assemblies—delivering unforgettable insights into the power of belief, adaptability, and human potential.
A rising star in British motorsport, Billy began karting at just six years old and quickly climbed the racing ladder. His career was forever changed in 2017 when, at the age of 17, he was involved in a high-speed crash at Donington Park that resulted in the amputation of both legs. Instead of walking away from the sport, he fought back—mentally and physically—to return to racing within the year. His comeback was nothing short of extraordinary. Billy became the first double amputee in modern times to compete in a single-seater race—a moment that not only redefined what was possible for him but inspired people across the world.
In recent years, Billy has continued to push limits beyond the racetrack. In 2024, he completed the Ironman World Championships in Kona, setting a new world record for a double amputee, completing the course in just over 14 hours. His physical achievements are matched by his growing media presence, including his work as a Formula 1 pundit for Channel 4, coverage of the Paralympic Games, and his critically acclaimed BBC documentary Billy Monger: The Race Is On. He has also raised millions for charity through gruelling challenges, including a 140-mile triathlon-style effort for Comic Relief.
Billy is hired not just for his story, but for the way he tells it. He speaks with humility, clarity, and conviction—always leaving audiences with a renewed sense of what’s possible. Whether the topic is leadership, change, mindset, or overcoming adversity, Billy brings a unique blend of elite performance, lived experience, and infectious positivity. His presence is inspiring, his delivery is energising, and his message stays with people long after the applause.
