JAMIE CHADWICK Makes History as First Female Hypercar Reserve in WEC

November 18, 2025

• JAMIE CHADWICK has shattered another ceiling, becoming the first woman to serve as a Hypercar reserve driver in the World Endurance Championship. This isn’t just a token role – she’s joining Genesis Magma Racing with expanded development responsibilities that signal real investment in her technical expertise beyond just her driving talent.
• The three-time W Series champion continues building her motorsports resume in the right direction, moving into one of racing’s premier categories. While we’ve seen women get opportunities before, this reserve role in WEC’s top Hypercar class represents genuine progress in a series that actually matters on the global stage.
• CHADWICK’s appointment proves what we’ve been saying – give women the right opportunities and they’ll deliver. Her development role suggests Genesis Magma Racing recognizes her value beyond just being “the female driver,” treating her as a legitimate technical asset in their WEC program.
