Jamie Chadwick Takes On Sky Sports F1 Punditry

Jamie Chaduk was never been living in a lane. From single seats to the race for endurance, he has made a career on adaptation, and taking advantage of every opportunity to come in his way. Now, as she continues to compete in the European Le Mans series (ELMS), she is stepping into a new role. This time behind the microphone of Sky Sports F1. It is not always smooth to turn from a driver to a pundit, but for Chadovic, this is another way to drown in the world of racing, which offers insights from some point of view.

Racing was not always planned

Chadwick has never seen racing as a clear career path. The idea of ​​making it as a professional driver for female athletes, with some administration opportunities and direct relations with the industry, seemed far away. Nevertheless, through steps like the W Series, it got its place on the track.

He said, “I think it was good enough, because he allowed him to discover a lot.”

When her career began, she was fortunate that her guardians guided her at her important moments. But in his heart, racing was always about passion. “When I entered it, I enjoyed it and saw a lot I did for entertainment, and some were lucky to have fun.” The feeling of enjoying it remained permanent in his journey, even his role in the game.

The driver of the driver behind the mic

Now, in his transfer to Panditri, Chadok Broadcast is implementing his experience as a driver in the world. She has been commenting in the last few years, but now she is fully stepped into the role. He acknowledged, “I think initially, you know that when you are also racing, such a slot does not always have the easiest role.” “But I really found that I really enjoyed it, and I learned a lot to follow this formula a week at a weekend.”

He added, “Now I feel like I have a great appreciation for journalists and broadcasters and production teams that are behind the scenes.”

Adjusting life in the broadcast booth

The transition is not always smooth. Learning to balance direct broadcasts with the complexities of the instructions in the ear is a skill in itself. He explained, “You have different types of instructions, and obviously there are on the camera, then trying to do it that you are not responding to what you are saying to you in your ears.”

Fortunately, it has been supported in its new environment. “They are [the Sky Sports Team] I was incredibly welcomed … helping me make this transition more broadcasting role than becoming a driver.

Learning experience

But beyond just talking about the game, this new character has also been a means of growing inside it. “What I look forward to is to analyze the situation, I think from a personal point of view, as the game is trying to learn from a maximum driving point of view, but also in Formula One.”

Even when she drowns herself in the broadcast, Chadok is firmly committed to her racing ambitions. “Driving is my first and top priority,” he said. “But at the same time, you know, I like the opportunity that I now have in the world of broadcasting. I think this will be my first year as much as I am in the race.

A portion of a growing presence in motorport media

Its presence in both racing and the media reflects a major change in the game – she is involved in the choice of Bernie Collins, Naomi Shif, Danika Patrick, Natalie Pankhim and Rahil Brooks in Sky Sports. Chadwick said, “The exhibition of women in the game is growing widely.” If you now activate your screen and you see that there are now a lot of great women’s broadcasters inside the Sky Sports team, so I think it really shows what women are in the game, and I think it is very good in the game.

He added, “I think it is great to have this kind of diversity within our team, and hope that many young women will be encouraged to see and realize our game, you know, which they can include.”

For Chadovic, this change in broadcast is not just a side project – this is another way to stay deeply connected to the game, navigate to such a place. Which once feels out of reach. As part of the Sky Sports F -One Team, with its first entire season, she is accepting the challenge.
