“When I was the only girl among hundreds of boys at my local karting track, it wasn’t the most welcoming environment at first, but that’s changing now,” Chadwick stated.<\/p>Jamie Chadwick<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n“In each event of this type, a significant increase is noted, interest has grown enormously.” The karting series that leads in the United Kingdom has exceeded expectations in terms of interest and participation, which drives it to continue growing.\n\nThe goal is to broaden the public’s perception of motorsports, showcasing the various opportunities available.\n\nMore than 450 girls have participated in the Jamie Chadwick Series events. In 2024, Daytona experienced a 400% increase in female participation in casual sessions on its outdoor karting tracks.\n\n

“It’s a great evolution of what we’re seeing, the industry is changing a lot. We see many more women in different roles, and I think the male dominance or bias that we’ve seen for so long no longer exists. Young women feel more motivated by it, and the fan base is also changing, as well as the culture of the sport,” she added.<\/p>Jamie Chadwick<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nRegardless of gender, it is crucial to showcase the opportunities that sport offers, which go beyond performance on the track.\n\nThere are numerous roles and important aspects in this sport, and giving young women the opportunity to discover them is fundamental.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
