JAMIE CHADWICK Eyes History at Le Mans 24 Hours as Women’s Racing Evolves

June 12, 2025

• JAMIE CHADWICK is making her Le Mans 24 Hours debut this weekend with the French IDEC team, bringing serious momentum after a class win and overall victory in the first two European Le Mans Series rounds. She’s targeting something no woman has achieved since 1975 – a class victory at the world’s most prestigious endurance race.
• The three-time W Series champion isn’t just here to participate – she’s here as a legitimate contender in the fiercely competitive LMP2 class. Her recent form includes a dominant pole-to-flag IndyCar feeder series win in 2024, proving she belongs at this level alongside veteran teammates Mathys Jaubert and three-time Le Mans winner Andre Lotterer.
• CHADWICK sees her Le Mans debut as part of a larger transformation happening across motorsport, noting the dramatic increase in female mechanics, engineers, and drivers compared to just six years ago. She founded her own female karting championship and continues advocating for women’s advancement while maintaining her role as Williams F1 ambassador, with ambitions to move up to the hypercar category.
