Jamie Chadwick enjoyed a historic clean sweep in last weekend’s Indy NXT race at Road America, the Williams F1 development driver securing his first win in the series with a lights-to-flag victory.
But the 26-year-old Briton, who started from pole, became only the third woman to win in the IndyCar feeder series and the first female driver to triumph on a road course.
While Chadwick dominated proceedings, she wasn't handed an easy win. A red flag forced a dramatic two-lap sprint to the finish, where she showcased her skill and nerves to secure her maiden victory from runner-up Louis Foster.

"With the red flag at the end, I was like 'oh, come on', we started to lose the tyres a little bit. Louis had a look and I just knew I had to be aggressive. I know they have a championship to worry about and I just had to get my head down. I really wanted to win today."
