Racing Awareness with Josh Hill, Miyuki Panda and James Montgomery

What happens when motorsport, charity, and personal stories of resilience come together? In this episode, we dive into the story behind Racing Awareness For — a charity endurance karting series created to bring the motorsport community and corporate teams together to raise meaningful funds for important causes. Our host is joined by James, or “Monty” (founder of Racing Awareness For), alongside Josh Hill and Miyukipanda, who are championing different rounds of the 2026 championship in support of charities including ADHD UK, Cancer Research UK, and the National Autistic Society. The discussion also touches on the concept of intersectionality, how identities and experiences can overlap, and why understanding these perspectives is key to creating more inclusive environments — both in sport and in everyday life. Along the way, the conversation highlights how events like Racing Awareness aren’t just about racing for a trophy — they’re about building communities, raising awareness, and creating real impact through shared passions.
