Taylor Lawrence is considered one of Great Britain's best bobsleigh brakemen.

He has won 15 World Cup medals - including three golds - as part of the two -man and four -man teams.

The 28-year-old is one of the few winter sports where ethnic diversity is evident.

There have been very few black British Winter Olympians, but there has been representation in Olympic teams since the 1980s .

"We're competing against the same people day in and day out from the World Cup circuit so we know we can beat them. It's just having those stars aligned.".
