Double amputee Billy Monger has completed a track test with B🏅ritish F3 outfit Carlin at Oulton Park as he targets a return to single-seater rac♍ing.

The 18-year-old got ཧbeh🌳ind the wheel of Carlin’s British F3 car at the Cheshire circuit in what was his first time driving a single-seater since his horrific high-speed crash during a British F4 race at Donington Park in April last year. 

Monger had one leg amp🏅utated above the knee and the other below after hitting a stationary car, but hi🎃s determination to return to competitive racing has caught the admiration of the motorsport world, and propelled a fundraising campaign that was supported by Formula 1 stars including reigning world champion Lewis Hamilton. 

His positive attitude and spirit has also been recognised by﷽ the Laureus sporting awards, with the teenager up for the ‘best sporting moment of the year’ award. 

Monger completed a remarkable recovery to drive a car again less than three months after his accident, while he has also undergone extensive simulator te🦋sts in preparation for a full-time return to racing.

Having gained support from the Motor Sports Association, Monger has also successfully helped t🤪o overturn an FIA rule that had previously prevented disabled drivers from competing in international single-seater categories. 

Monger recently announced his intentions to contest a single-se☂ater championship - most likely British F3 - in 2018, and his Carlin test represents a significant milestone in hi꧒s ambitions.
