Jamie Chadwick didn’t just win a race at Road America this month. She made a clean sweep: qualifying on pole, leading every lap, and becoming the first woman to win in IndyCar’s feeder series, Indy NXT, in almost 15 years. More than a week later, it still feels like an out-of-body experience for her. “I always feel like it never really sinks in,” Chadwick, 26, told Motorsport.com. “I've had to watch it back and be like: ‘Oh, that did just happen. That was legit.’ It’s weird.
Not to say it's always going to be like that, but now I do believe we can be up there.” Since the win, headlines everywhere have been about Chadwick making history: that she’s the first woman to win in Indy NXT since Pippa Mann in 2010, and the first woman to ever win on a non-oval track. But Chadwick didn’t think about that stat before Road America, and she hasn’t thought about it since. “I don't like that stat, because it's frustrating that it's been that long,” Chadwick said.
