  • A racing driver who became the first female to achieve a podium finish in the JCW Mini Challenge Championship has her sights set on a new class. Lydia Walmsley, from Kesgrave in Suffolk, described that win as "history-making" and now hopes to compete in the Porsche Sprint Challenge GB.

The article discusses the career of racing driver Jamie Chadwick, who has made history in motorsport by becoming the first woman to win the W Series, a now-defunct all-female single-seater racing championship, three times consecutively. After the W Series ceased operations, Chadwick has been focusing on new challenges, including racing in the Indy NXT series in the United States, where she aims to compete against male drivers and further prove her skills. She has also been involved in testing with teams like Williams in Formula 1, although opportunities for women in F1 remain limited. Chadwick's move to Indy NXT is part of her broader ambition to break into higher echelons of motorsport, showcasing her determination to succeed in a male-dominated field. Her journey is supported by sponsors and teams who recognize her talent and potential, highlighting her as a role model for aspiring female racers.
