Jamie Chadwick, three-time W Series champion and Andretti Global INDY NXT driver, delivered an electrifying performance at Portland International Raceway.
In her second season with Andretti Global and following a historic INDY NXT victory earlier this month, where she became the first woman to win at a racetrack, Chadwick drove the Formula E GEN3 electric race car for the first time, reaching speeds of more than 150 km/h at the iconic racetrack.
Chadwick also demonstrated his impressive skills and speed by taking Michael Andretti, the legendary driver and owner of the Andretti Global team, for a hot lap on the team’s home turf in a Porsche Taycan.
In Portland, Jamie was on hand to support fellow Andretti Global drivers Jake Dennis and Norman Nato, as well as join the broadcast presentation team as a driver analyst for both races.
