GRRL! SUMMARY:

  • CHLOE CHAMBERS absolutely owned Valencia, sweeping both sessions after switching from Andretti to Mahindra Racing. Her 1:22.767 came after just nine total hours in Formula E machinery compared to hundreds for the full-timers – that’s the kind of natural speed that makes teams pay attention. Last year she finished 15th of 17 in her debut; this year she’s setting the standard.
  • ABBI PULLING proved her 2024 test win wasn’t a fluke, staying within 0.064 seconds of CHAMBERS and cementing her value to Nissan’s program. Meanwhile BIANCA BUSTAMANTE locked down third place for Cupra after her team switch from McLaren, showing the Filipina driver continues to extract performance wherever she lands.
  • The expanded six-hour format gave 14 women serious seat time, with veterans like JAMIE CHADWICK and ALICE POWELL mixing it up with newcomers. Even TATIANA CALDERÓN’s rocky start with two gravel trips couldn’t keep her from seventh overall – that’s the resilience we expect from drivers who’ve had to fight for every opportunity in this sport.
