Nicolas Hamilton's biography

At a glance

  • Pro BTCC racing driver with cerebral palsy
  • First disabled driver to race in the BTCC
  • Jack Sears Trophy winner with Team VERTU

Nicolas Hamilton is a British Touring Car Championship racing driver and the first disabled driver to compete in the series. He speaks to organisations about resilience, disability inclusion, and what it takes to perform when the odds are stacked against you.


In 2026 he raced for Team VERTU, the EXCELR8-run defending champions, scoring championship points and winning his first motorsport trophy, the Jack Sears Trophy at Snetterton. He's the author of Now That I Have Your Attention, has featured in British Vogue, and has worked with Meta, Amazon, and MINI on diverse representation.


Born with cerebral palsy, Nicolas was told as a child he'd never walk, and used a wheelchair until years of rehabilitation had him walking unaided at 17. Growing up alongside his brother, seven-time Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton, he built his own path in motorsport, raising his own sponsorship and working with his team to accommodate his disability.


Audiences hear how to set ambitious goals when others have already written you off, how to find the resources to compete when you're under-equipped, and how a team that adapts to individual needs gets better performance from everyone. His stories come straight from the paddock, so the lessons stay practical.


For events focused on resilience, inclusion, or high performance, Nicolas brings a story audiences remember and a perspective on ambition that's hard to argue with.

Does PepTalk charge a booking fee?

No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.

What happens after I send a brief?

Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.

What does the typical fee range mean?

The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.

Have all the speakers on the website worked with PepTalk before?

Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.

How far in advance should I book a speaker?

Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
