Briton to race in LMP2 class for French IDEC team
‘In the next decade we’ll see a huge transition’
Jamie Chadwick believes motor racing is undergoing a fundamental change in female participation, a transition the British driver has played a central role in. Chadwick is committed to taking it even further as she prepares to compete for the first time in the endurance classic, the Le Mans 24 Hours, this weekend.
The 27-year-old has long been an advocate of promoting women in motorsport, including founding her own female karting championship, and is convinced the motor racing landscape is finally beginning to change.
She will make her debut at the Circuit de la Sarthe driving for the French IDEC team, alongside Mathys Jaubert and the Le Mans veteran Andre Lotterer, a three-time winner of the world’s greatest sports car race.
