Jamie Chadwick Series - Round Three

Daytona Tamworth

Drivers of Jamie Chadwick Series 2026 descended upon Daytona Tamworth for the third instalment of its national tour. Strong grids of emerging and returning talent were in attendance as the standings begin to take shape and title favourites emerge.

It was an incredibly close Qualifying for the Cadet drivers, with the top four separated by just four tenths of a second. However, it was Mahi Maru that took pole position just in front of Willow Wright and Valentina Bayliss-Wells. The race featured a dominant performance from Maru, who took the race victory by seven seconds over her next competitor. The battle for second place was a lot closer as Wright and Felicity Roberts scrapped over the position for the duration of the race with Roberts putting up a fantastic defence drive to just hold onto P2 by seven tenths over Wright in P3.

As in the Cadets it was just four tenths that separated the top four in the Junior class’ Qualifying. Sarah Telford sought to increase her championship advantage by taking pole position in front of Scarlett Drury in second, with Tilly Watson and Daniella Mcintosh in third and fourth respectively. In the race, spectators bore witness to two-way fight for victory, Telford and Watson managing to build a gap to the karts behind. In the end, Watson took the race victory after a pass in the final few laps. Telford finished just six tenths back in second with Drury picking up the final podium spot as well as the fastest lap.

The first Heat in the 4-Stroke Lights class was taken by Tilly Watson, carrying momentum from her victory earlier on in the Junior field. She was joined on the Heat podium by Megan Gascoyne and Sarah Telford, with Elli Henneman showing quick pace to finish fourth after fighting her way through the grid from a rear of the pack race start. In Heat Two Henneman carried forward the pace she showed in the first Heat, going onto secure the race victory in a dominant display which saw her cross the line ten seconds ahead of her nearest competitor. The battle for the final two podium positions was incredibly close, drivers from P3-P10 all within two seconds of one another at the chequered flag. However, emerging from the fog of battle came Aiyana Lane and Nicole Robinson to lay claim to said podium positions. Then came yet another dominant performance from Henneman in the Final to earn her first round win in the series by over three seconds. Behind came Gascoyne in second place with Watson following to secure her second podium of the day.

In the Inters Rachael Mallard took the first Heat win, looking to continue her strong form from previous rounds which has seen her climb to the top of the season’s leaderboard. Close behind was Clara Norris and Amber Bradley-Smith. Norris took the victory in Heat Two by six seconds over Mallard, with Erika Lever-Hogg picking up third. In the Final, Mallard took the win on the road, but a contact penalty saw Norris promoted to victory by just a few tenths of a second. Resultantly, Mallard finished P2 with Lena Reading taking the final spot on the podium.

There was drama from the get-go in the DMAX field with a race restart and a red flag throwing the first Heat into chaos. Championship leader, Julia Stankowiak emerged victorious from the fray after a drag race to the line between herself and Imogen Owen, with Pheobe Hardy in P3 a few tenths behind. Stankowiak continued her form to make it two out of two Heat victories as she picked up the win by just four tenths over Sophie Carter in second. Owen and Milena Clark followed only a few more tenths behind in third and fourth respectively. The Final was filled with drama. Tabitha Mellor stormed from P8 up to the lead of the race, however, a five second penalty meant she needed to extend the gap to the karts behind. On the final lap of the race Clark made a move on Stankowiak for P2 which at the chequered flag turned into the race victory as she finished just 4.7 seconds behind Mellor who just about managed to hold onto second with the penalty finishing just a few hundredths in front of Stankowiak in third.
