Caitlyn Jenner, the former racing driver and Olympic champion, has launched a new team – Jenner Racing – which will compete in the third season of the W Series in 2022

“I am really excited to be returning to W Series to defend my title,” said Chadwick. “To be asked to return by Jenner Racing was an opportunity I didn’t think twice about.

“Together, we are focused on doing all we can to win title number three. I have spoken to Caitlyn Jenner and her vision for the team is amazing. I have zero doubt that she will be able to help take my career to the next level and open doors for me internationally.

“This is a big development year for me. I have plans to run a supporting racing programme and I have made no secret of my desire to compete in F3 and F2.

“But timing is everything and the opportunity that W Series gives me to get more competitive experience at world-class circuits is a key step on my journey towards competing in F1.”

The W Series will be supporting races at eight F1 Grand Prix weekends this year – starting in Miami in May.

Chadwick, 23, will also work closely with the Williams team at F1 race weekends.
