Hamilton returns to Clio Cup

40

We're talking about Nicolas Hamilton here, the 25-year-old brother of Lewis.

Nic returns to the Renault Clio Cup this year, a series he took part in back in 2011 when he kicked off his racing career.

Nic's achievements are made even more remarkable by the fact that he suffers from cerebral palsy, a group of permanent movement disorders that appear in early childhood.

The disability has done nothing however to diminish Nic Hamilton's racing ambitions as he inspires and demonstrates to others that obstacles can always be overcome when you're chasing your dreams.

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
