The W Series is the international single seater motor racing championship for women.

It allows drivers to be selected purely on their ability with the cars all being mechanically identical, so the driver's skill is what matters. 

Launched in October 2018, the series removes the financial barriers that can often stop riders from moving up the ranks in motorsport. 

Channel 4 will show the highlights of all ten W Series races, starting with the first race in Miami on 7 May.

The build-up to and analysis of the races, plus paddock insights will be covered, with every race available after on All4. 

As part of the British Grand Prix Formula 1 weekend, Channel 4 will air the W Series race live from Silverstone on 2 July, allowing viewers to watch the best male and female drivers. 

This will be the third series, which has produced some of the best professional female racing drivers of all time.

Eighteen female drivers from across the globe will compete for the championship title, including last year’s champion Jamie Chadwick and five drivers making their debut.
