In a surprise twist of fate, Jamie Chadwick has resigned on to race in the W Series for the third year on the trot, but this time she will be racing for the newly acquired Jenner Racing team headed up by Caitlin Jenner herself.
Chadwick has won the previous 2 seasons in W Series making this her attempt at a hat-trick. Caitlin Jenner has bagged herself a ringer for the series.
Jamie will be looking to add to her fantastic stats that she has already achieved in the series, having only missed out on 2 podiums out of the 14 race run!
This run of terrific form, no doubt helped Williams Racing’s decision to keep Jamie on as development driver, a role she has had with the team since 2019.
W Series will be supporting FORMULA 1 again this year in 8 more races, starting at non other than the brand new to the calendar Miami GP, USA.
Caitlyn Jenner proving she knows exactly what it takes to excel at the elite level of sport, formed Jenner Racing off the back of watching them compete at last years W Series race in Austin.
“Jamie is an exceptional talent who has helped elevate the profile of W Series and inspire the next generation of female racing drivers with her performances on track – which have seen her become a two-time W Series champion – and off it where she has articulated our mission passionately and eloquently to a global audience. We are delighted that she has decided to defend her title, and I can’t wait to watch her race at eight iconic circuits on the Formula 1 calendar for the Jenner Racing team.”
Catherine Bond Muir (Chief Executive Officer, W Series)
“I am really excited to be returning to W Series to defend my title. To be asked to return by Jenner Racing was an opportunity I didn’t think twice about. Together, we are focused on doing all we can to win title number three. I have spoken to Caitlyn Jenner and her vision for the team is amazing. I have zero doubt that she will be able to help take my career to the next level and open doors for me internationally.
“This is a big development year for me. I have plans to run a supporting racing programme and I have made no secret of my desire to compete in F3 and F2. But timing is everything and the opportunity that W Series gives me to get more competitive experience at world-class circuits is a key step on my journey towards competing in F1. I would like to thank W Series for their continued support, and I am looking forward to kicking off season three in Miami.”
