三届 W Series 冠军 Jamie Chadwick 承认，作为单座赛车阶梯中备受关注的女性车手，她表现不佳的日子往往会被过度审视，并被视作其性别的反映。
在 Significant Figures 播客节目中，Chadwick 公开谈论了代表女性参与赛车运动的压力。
“我确实感受到了，但更多是因为当我不够快时，我只想慢下来。我不想不得不……如果我慢，不是因为我是一个女人。我慢是因为我今天就是慢。就让我慢吧，”Chadwick 在谈到感受到压力时说。
“如果我每天都很快，那我会乐意挥舞女性的旗帜，说‘看看我们能做什么’。我的意思是，这就是这项运动，嗯，有些人每天都很好，但我不是每天都好。这是我背负的一种重担。
“现在没那么严重了，因为这项运动中有更多的女性。我觉得压力没那么大了。但四五年前，在我们所参加的任何级别中，我们的参赛人数都太少了，感觉所有的目光都集中在你身上，是因为你是一个女人，而不是因为你是一名赛车手。如果你做得不好，那么就像我说的，这在一定程度上反映了性别。”
在 2015 年成为英国 GT 锦标赛首位女性且最年轻的冠军、并在 2017 和 2018 年参加英国三级方程式锦标赛之后，Chadwick 参加了全女性赛事 W Series。
她在 2019 年至 2022 年间连续三次夺得 W Series 冠军，之后这位英国车手转战 Indy NXT 锦标赛，成为首位在公路或街道赛道获胜的女性。
Chadwick 还参加过欧洲勒芒系列赛和 Extreme E，并担任 威廉姆斯 比赛 大使以及 F1 Academy 的 威廉姆斯 车手学院顾问。

Jamie Chadwick opens up on pressure of representing women in motorsport
Jamie Chadwick says poor results were seen as a reflection of her gender

Three-time W Series champion Jamie Chadwick has admitted that being a prominent female driver on the single-seater ladder meant her off days were often heavily scrutinised as a reflection of her gender.
Speaking on the Significant Figures podcast, Chadwick opened up about the pressure of representing women in motorsport.
"I did, but more because when I wasn't fast, I just want to be slow. I don't want to have to... if I am slow, it's not because I'm a woman. I'm slow because I'm slow today. Just let me be slow," Chadwick said of feeling the pressure.
"If I was fast every day, then I'd happily be waving the female flag and be like, 'Look what we can do.' And I mean, that is the sport, well, some people are good every day, but I'm not good every day. And that is a weight that I carried.
"And now not so much because there are so many more women in the sport. I feel like it's less so. But four or five years ago, there were so few of us competing at whatever level we're competing at that it felt like the eyeballs are on you as a woman rather than as a racing driver. And if you don't do a good job, then, like I say, that reflects on the gender to a degree."
After making history as the first female and youngest champion of the British GT Championship in 2015 and racing in the British Formula 3 Championship in 2017 and 2018, Chadwick raced in the all-female W Series.
She secured three consecutive W Series championships between 2019 and 2022 before the Briton moved to the Indy NXT championship, where she became the first woman to win a race on a road or street course.
Chadwick has also raced in the European Le Mans Series and Extreme E and serves as a Williams Racing ambassador and Williams Driver Academy adviser for F1 Academy.
