👮‍♂️ The driver stewards changing
⚽️ What could be learned from football

W Series hit Hungary for Round 4 of the 2021 championship. The series put on another Jamie Chadwick vs Alice Powell fight. This time Chadwick emerged victorious for the second time this season ahead of Powell and podium newcomer, Nerea Martí 🍾

Here’s what the three had to say to us at GP Grandstand when we spoke to them after the race 🎙

Jamie Chadwick: “It’s hard to catch up”

Q: You’ve said about the championship ebbing and flowing. Last time it flowed to Alice who you couldn’t get close to. This time the opposite. What’s changing between these weekends? Preferred tracks, setups?

If you dial it in quicker then it’s hard to catch up like we saw with Alice last weekend and with me this weekend.

Scenarios aren’t changing so it’s hard to get ahead easily, but like I said it’s going to ebb and flow I’m sure throughout the year.

Alice Powell: “Plenty to play for”
Q: The field spread was notable again in Hungary. Do you see the hard-wearing tyres as part of that? You couldn’t catch up with Jamie… Would you like to see more degrading tyres like in F1?

Erm…yeh, potentially. I expected to have a lot more oversteer in the race than I did, but I was struggling a lot with understeer. As well as quite a big vibration that I touched on on the radio coming into the pit lane before we went to the grid. That progressively got worse.

We would’ve liked to have been a lot closer in the race but second place is still solid points. In 2019 I would’ve taken being in this position. There’s still four races left and plenty to play for.

Nerea Martí: “I’ve got high motivation”

Q: You’ve come in extremely consistent with your results so far. Are you surprised with how well you have done or were you expecting to be on the podium at this point in the championship?

Erm… yeh. I’ve got high motivation because I know at each race I have a good progression now. And this is this way because my motivation, my speed each race is better. So I will fight a lot and try to stay on the podium again.

Four races and three pieces of silverware for Alice Powell! It might not have been a win, but Powell is just one point off first in a mammoth title fight with Chadwick 🏆

And joining the rostrum for the first time...say hello to Nerea Martí! Not only does Martí take her first W Series trophy, she moves ahead of Sarah Moore in the ultra-tight battle for third in the championship 👏

Practice is over. It's heads down and time for the sessions that count... ⏱

For those of you thinking that a return to the normal weekend format will mean a quiet weekend, think again. Thiemo (.albers.daly.drivetribe) takes a look at the main things to watch out for this weekend...👇

Following *that* moment in Silverstone, the gloves are well and truly off in the title fight. Mercedes’ win and Red Bull’s forgettable weekend last time out essentially wiped out the advantage they built over the previous five races. Lewis Hamilton is eight points behind Max Verstappen. Mercedes are four points behind Red Bull. It’s all to play for with the stakes higher than ever. 🃏

Mercedes have out strategized Red Bull in Hungary before, can they do it again? Valtteri Bottas and Sergio Perez will also be crucial players in what is most likely going to be a race of strategy. This weekend is almost guaranteed to provide us with edge of your seat action. Get ready to hide behind your sofa. 🛋

With Budapest being a low speed track, it seems like the ideal place for Ferrari to spice things up. Could Charles or Carlos stick their Ferrari on Pole position? Could a podium at the very least be on the cards for the prancing horses? You wouldn’t be called crazy for thinking there’s a decent possibility of it happening. 🇮🇹

Ferrari’s main rivals, and a thorn in Mercedes/Red Bull’s side at times, McLaren have been excellent this season. This has been down in large part to a phenomenal Lando Norris. He broke Alonso’s record for longest points tally in a season in Silverstone and currently sits P3 in the standings. 🥉

If past lives are a thing, you must be thinking that George Russell must have been someone awful previously to get the bad luck he’s been having this season. On the cusp of achieving his and Williams’ first points on numerous occasions, they’ve been snatched away at the last moment. Could this bad luck finally change in Hungary? If I say it quietly enough, maybe it will happen. 🤫

There is one more round to go in the W Series season before the summer break. Thiemo (.albers.daly.drivetribe) takes a look at what you should keep an eye out for this Budapest weekend…🕵️‍♂️

Three rounds in and there are just six points separating Alice Powell and Jamie Chadwick. The 2019 defending Champion has performed well since her first race mishap back in Austria. But Alice is not letting up in her pursuit for the Championship with two wins to her name already this season. Both drivers will be hungry for at least another trip to the podium this weekend, if not the win itself. 🏆

8th, 2nd and 14th places are the finishing positions that rookie Sidorkova has managed so far this year. The Russian got off to an impressive start to her campaign. But she was let down a bit by a poor performance in Silverstone. One must remember, though, that she’s still a rookie and has consistently finished ahead of more experienced drivers in all three rounds so far. 🇷🇺

With podiums in two of the first three races, it will be shocking if Fabienne Wohlwend doesn’t get up onto the top step sometime in the 2021 season. Could she do it this weekend? It’s very likely. Wohlwend is quickly becoming a fan favourite so it would be awesome to see it happen. Either way, Fabienne is going to another driver to keep your eye on this weekend as she just might spice things up in a brilliant way. 👏

There are plenty of other drivers on the W Series grid, and all have had a mixed bag of it so far this season. The likes of Ayla Agren, Bruna Tomaselli, Vicky Piria and Beitske Visser have all flown somewhat under the radar this season. It will be fascinating to see which of these – and the other – drivers can capitalise best this weekend, and for us as fans to see if there will be any unexpected surprises in store. 👀

Oh, and it's a hello and welcome back to Caitlin Wood who is stepping into the roving car of Tasmin Pepper this week. Great to see you back on the grid 👋

A little late to the social networks but our W Series Debrief from Silverstone is online 👏
It was a late start in the year for W Series to begin...yet somehow the next race marks the halfway point for the series! 🤯
With racing coming home for a third of the drivers, here’s what GP Grandstand thought to W Series’ Silverstone debut 🇬🇧

Jim (): A heartbreaking afternoon for Fabienne Wohlwend whose one late-braking moment cost her victory. Elation for the home crowd, and Alice Powell, but Wohlwend should hold her head up high with two podiums in three races. Along with Sarah Moore, she’s one of the drivers who has taken a huge step up in this second season. 🥾

Thiemo (.albers.daly.drivetribe): Academy Driver Irina Sidorkova had an unbelievable Austrian race where she finished second. But at Silverstone, her fortunes were reversed as she suffered from a poor qualifying session. The Russian rookie was then unable to really recover during the race and had to settle for 15th place by the end of the race. Naturally, this is part of the learning curve for her but it also just goes to show that you can’t predict what’s going to happen in W Series from one round to the next. 🎢

Jacob (): The third round of W Series saw a battle for the lead that went right down to the final 5 minutes. Alice Powell took victory and extends her lead at the top passing Fabienne Wohlwend. Jamie Chadwick who had a poor start to the season is in full flow, hot on Powell’s heels.
The Championship battle is still super tight with underdog Sarah Moore still in contention. I still feel like Chadwick and Powell will duel it out till the end but I’ll sit on the fence for now. W series is really coming into its own since it joined the F1 support calendar and it certainly feels at home on it.🏡
