“W Series’ 2022 season started with a bang in Miami, and, after a tour of our European homeland, we raced in Asia for the first time,” says W Series CEO Catherine Bond Muir. Jamie started the second race of the opening double-header from pole position, as the drivers’ second-best qualifying time determined the starting grid. That looked to be Jamie’s after she edged out the 2019 W Series runner-up by one hundredth of a second with 90 seconds of qualifying remaining. Jamie’s fifth victory from five races in 2022 – and the 11th of her W Series career – gave her a 70-point lead over nearest challenger Abbi. Jamie started from fifth on the grid – her lowest starting position since the first race of the 2021 season in Austria where she qualified eighth. I think it’s been coming for the last few races as we’ve always been there. From the first race in Hockenheim to now, it’s just amazing how far the series has come.
