When the all-female W Series was announced in 2018 no one expected it to be smooth sailing. Making waves in motorsport’s boys’ club was always rather the point. Yet few imagined the impact it would make. Going global in only its second season is remarkable.
This week the series was awarded the John Nicol Trophy at the British Racing and Sports Car Club awards, honouring the organisation considered to have made the most influential contribution to furthering motorsport.
