Challenge yourself and unlock your potential with former F3 driver, pundit and Guinness World Record holder - Billy Monger!
Hi there! I'm Billy Monger. I'm here to talk to you about something incredible . . . LIFE!
Few people embody triumph over adversity as much as Billy. Becoming an F3 race driver despite being a double amputee? Yep, that took some work. How about breaking an ironman record and raising over £4.5 million for Comic Relief? Tick. What about dancing in front of the nation on Strictly Come Dancing? And competing in Race Across the World? Comfort zone well and truly left. Billy now has his sights on becoming a GB Paralympian at LA28. But how does he do it?
In his debut book, Billy Monger - whose documentaries include Driven, Changing Gear and The Race is On - wants to show you how incredible life can be when you break out of your comfort zone. Written with sports writer Seth Burkett, Find Your Drive: Build Confidence, Unleash Your Potential is full of stories from Billy's life and advice that will inspire you to challenge yourself and build resilience. Because even if we don't always succeed, we can always try.
It will show you how to:
- Find your own drive
- Overcome the barriers that the world has put up
- Harness your inner strength and use it to achieve your goals
- Use your voice and speak up for what you believe in
- Find joy in life, no matter what comes your way!
Easy to read and packed with photographs and illustrations, Find Your Drive is perfect for fast and curious minds, whatever their reading ability.
So, what are you waiting for? It's lights out and . . . away we go!

About the Author
Billy Monger, nicknamed Billy Whizz, has loved racing ever since his dad bought him his first go-kart at the age of two. Together, the father-son team conquered the world of junior racing before stepping up to F4. But a horror crash left Billy facing surgery to amputate both of his legs. Remarkably, Billy not only returned to race, but also won in the higher graded F3. His story of determination, resilience and optimism struck a chord with the general public and earned him the BBC Sports Personality of the Year Helen Rollason Award in 2018. Now aged 25, Billy's interests have gone beyond racing. He still works as a pundit for F1, but he's also appeared on shows such as Strictly Come Dancing and Race Across the World, and had two BBC Documentaries made about his life: Driven and The Race is On. After taking up running, cycling and swimming, he's now an ironman world-record holder, for which he's been made a Guinness World Record Icon. He has now set his sights on competing at the 2028 Paralympics. He's also raised more than £4.5 million for Comic Relief along the way. Seth Burkett grew up in Stamford, Lincolnshire. Aged 18 he moved to Brazil to play professional football. His first book, The Boy in Brazil, documents a remarkable season in Sorriso and was shortlisted for the 2015 British Sport Book Awards. Following this, Seth developed a career in writing which has seen him publish 11 books. He has written for adults and children, and has also ghostwritten books for coaches, footballers and YouTubers.
