CHADWICKS IN GINETTA REUNION
Three-time W Series champion Jamie Chadwick and brother Ollie returned to the driver’s seat of their old Ginetta Junior car at Castle Combe last month.
The siblings both launched their carracing careers in Ginetta Junior, and
Ollie in 2016 became Ginetta GT5 Challenge champion.
In 2020, unbeknown to the siblings, their family and original race engineer Nick Hart relocated the car and restored it. At the end of the year it was presented to Jamie and Ollie as a Christmas gift.
And last month the pair at last got their first chance to drive it, with the car in the same yellow livery as it ran in with them previously.
Jamie said: “I’d forgotten how edgy and analogue these are, but it all came flooding back, and it’s really addictive trying to get the best out of it. We’re hoping to have a lot more fun in it next year – time permitting.”
