Monger, who turned 18 earlier this month, was involved in a serious crash in April during a British F4 race at Donington when, his view blocked by a car in front, he hit another car that had stopped on the circuit.

The British F4 series was running as a support series for the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) that weekend.

It took over an hour for Monger to be extracted from his vehicle so that he could be airlifted to hospital.

Despite his injury, Monger is determined to race again.
