20 Quotes by Billy Monger

If I'm winning races, it means I'm doing a good job. I've put down a marker now, against drivers with a lot more experience of the car than me. This is not going to be a one-off.

Getting back racing gave me the extra motivation in other areas to get back walking in my day to day life and just spurred me on.

It's been my dream to race in F1 since I was eight. I don't see why that should change just because I've changed. It's a big challenge but I like to push myself. The accident has toughened me up and made me realise what's important. It's spurred me on to get to F1.

I don't feel like my career path has changed.

They saved my life but the accident was unavoidable so there was no point feeling sorry for myself. I just wanted to race again.

I'm happiest when I'm in the car. I don't have to worry about my A-Levels or my prosthetics or anything. I can just go out there and be me, doing what I've always wanted to do.

When I'm in the car, if you didn't know my story and just saw me driving, you wouldn't know the difference between me and any of the other drivers. I'm just out there competing.

When I said I wanted to get back racing my dream was to be an F1 driver. I didn't know how realistic that was going to be until I'd driven again.

I am a racing driver and I am not just some guy who has had an accident and gone back to racing because that is what he enjoys.
