Since its creation in 2019, W Series has quickly made a name for itself. Now a supporting series for Formula 1, the all-female championship is having its biggest season yet.
With two races done, and six more to come, the two-time champion Jamie Chadwick is leading the standings. Chadwick switched teams ahead of the 2022 season joining Jenner racing — a new team to the series headed up by former Olympic athlete Caitlyn Jenner.
However, fellow British drivers Abbi Pulling and Alice Powell are going to ensure Chadwick doesn’t have an easy ride. Currently 2nd and 3rd on the leadership board, the two drivers will both be hoping it’s them ending up on the top step at Silverstone.
