In a race that featured plenty of contact and spins, Chadwick’s Andretti Global machine managed to avoid the chaos, climbing from sixth to third and within striking distance of the win on a late restart with three laps to go. Although there wasn’t enough to make a run at race winner Jacob Abel, the Briton was still able to capture a career-best third-place result, which came in her 17th start. She became the first woman to finish on the podium of an Indy NXT race since Pippa Mann won in 2010 .
“These are physical cars, and coming from something like W Series, which is probably closer to an F4 car, I knew it was going to be a challenge,” said Chadwick. “But until you're really in the thick of it and in the season, you don't really know, and for that reason I was underprepared last year. “I beefed up quite a bit over the off-season, which has definitely helped and paid off this year.
