“I’m very happy, it was a bit of a struggle to find the balance this weekend. [team-mate) Louis [Foster] I knew it was going to be a good car because he did that lap,” Chadwick said.
“The track conditions are improving and this is an opportunity for our group. I was sure we could make the most of it. It will be a tough race but I am confident in our ability.”
Earlier this year, Chadwick also launched a new initiative to increase female participation in grassroots motorsport.
The three-time W Series champion is helping to partner with Daytona Motorsports to provide free karting and mentoring to women for a year.
She is the UK’s most decorated active female motorsport driver, having dominated the W Series for three years before moving to the fiercely competitive IndyNXT Series.
Chadwick is also part of the Williams Driver Academy and this season he is mentoring Williams’ F1 Head of Team Leah Block in the F1 Academy.
