Meet the world’s only armless racing driver who steers with his FEET and dreams of becoming the first disabled competitor at Le Mans. Callum Smith, 23, was born without arms but has already hit speeds of more than 110mph on track thanks to a custom foot-steering plate. The finance assistant from Nuneaton,., has signed his first driver contract with Team BRIT, the world's only competitive racing team made up entirely of disabled drivers, and is now chasing a place on one of motorsport’s biggest stages. Callum fell in love with racing aged just two after watching bike racing with his grandad, Michael Smith. He completed his first track day in July 2025 and maxed out at 90mph around Donington Park's 2.5-mile iconic track. Then in April he clocked an impressive 100mph top speed on Silverstone’s 3.66-mile GP circuit in his own Audi A3. Now he has his sights set on competing in Le Mans as part of the first disabled team. Le Mans is a 24 hour race to see who can travel the furthest
