W Series champion Jamie Chadwick is among the drivers who have committed to competing in the new Extreme E electric SUV racing series in 2021.
Chadwick, a Williams development driver, won the inaugural season of the all-female W Series this year and joins a list of high-profile names signing up to Extreme E. They include multiple world rally champion Sebastian Ogier, two-time DTM champion Timo Scheider, Formula E champion Lucas di Grassi, Le Mans winner Andre Lotterer and former IndyCar racer Katherine Legge.
Extreme E, which will host its inaugural race in Greenland in February 2021, hopes to spread a message of environmental sustainability by racing off road in parts of the world affected by climate change.
