JAMIE CHADWICK AND JUJU NODA TO DRIVE FOR JAGUAR TCS RACING IN UPCOMING WOMEN’S TEST IN VALENCIA

23 October 2025

Jamie Chadwick and Juju Noda will represent Jaguar TCS Racing in the 2025/26 ABB FIA Formula E official women’s test, building on the success of last year’s pioneering FIA Championship event.

  • Jaguar TCS Racing has confirmed Jamie Chadwick and Juju Noda will drive for the team in the 2025/26 ABB FIA Formula E official women’s test in Valencia on 31 October.
  • Britain’s most decorated woman racer Chadwick returns to the team with extensive experience in the Jaguar I‑TYPE 7 and a standout career across single‑seaters, Indy NXT, and sportscar racing.
  • Japanese track star Noda joins the test as a trailblazer from Super Formula, continuing her rapid rise through international motorsport and championing female representation in the sport.
  • The women’s test builds on the success of last year’s inaugural event, bringing together a diverse group of talent to drive the GEN3 Evo‑spec Formula E cars.

British driver Chadwick is well‑acquainted with the Jaguar I‑TYPE 7, having driven the car during the inaugural women’s test in Madrid; in Jeddah’s Free Practice session; and the Rookie Test in Berlin earlier this year ‑ all during the 2024/25 season. Her relationship with Jaguar TCS Racing, however, dates back to 2020 when she first represented the team at the Marrakesh Rookie Test.

With a 14‑year career spanning single‑seaters, sportscars, and international championships, Chadwick has built an impressive racing resume. She made her single‑seater debut in 2017 in the BRDC British Formula 3 Championship before dominating the W Series, becoming an undefeated triple champion with 11 career victories. In 2022, she joined Andretti Autosport as a test driver in Indy NXT and was signed for the 2023 and 2024 seasons – making history as the first woman in 14 years to win an Indy NXT race and finishing seventh overall in the championship. 

Chadwick has continued to impress in sportscar racing this year, making her Le Mans debut in June and securing multiple wins in the European Le Mans Series with IDEC Sport in the LMP2 class.

Joining Jamie at Jaguar TCS Racing is Super Formula driver Juju Noda. Born in Tokyo in 2006, she began karting at the age of three and was already testing single‑seater race cars on Japanese circuits by the time she was nine years old. Her competitive debut came in the 2019 Lucas Oil Winter Race Series, followed by a standout performance in the F4 Danish Championship in 2020, where she won her first race and finished sixth overall. 

Juju continued to build her career across various series, including the W Series and Euroformula Open. In 2024, Juju made history by becoming the first Japanese woman to race in Super Formula, Japan’s premier single‑seater championship, joining TGM Grand Prix.

It’s fantastic to be returning to Jaguar TCS Racing for the women’s test in Valencia. Having already driven the I‑TYPE 7 last season, I’m excited to build on that experience and continue working with the team. Driving in Formula E presents a unique challenge, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to be part of it.

I’m really looking forward to joining Jaguar TCS Racing for the Formula E women’s test. Driving the GEN3 Evo car will be a new experience for me, and I’m excited to learn from the team and push myself in this environment. It’s an honour to contribute to an initiative that supports women in motorsport and helps open doors for talented drivers.

Notes to Editors

ABOUT JAGUAR TCS RACING  
Jaguar returned to racing in October 2016, becoming the first luxury manufacturer to join the all‑electric ABB FIA Formula E Championship.   

Since then, Jaguar TCS Racing has taken more than 20 race victories and over 50 podium finishes in Formula E, and secured the ABB FIA Formula E Teams’ World Championship and Manufacturer’s Trophy in 2024 – Jaguar’s first World Championship win since 1991.  
  
Last season, competing in the all‑new GEN3 Evo era, Jaguar TCS Racing debuted its most advanced and efficient Formula E race car – the Jaguar I‑TYPE 7 – and took six race wins across the 2024/25 campaign. This is the most victories the British team has taken across a single season since joining the championship nine years ago.  

Jaguar TCS Racing has a new driver pairing for the 2025/26 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship season. Mitch Evans – who has taken the joint‑highest number of victories in Formula E history whilst driving with Jaguar – will team up with Season 6 Formula E champion António Félix da Costa for the forthcoming campaign. The British team will be led by new Team Principal Ian James, who has previously overseen two Drivers’ and Teams’ ABB FIA Formula E World Championship victories for the Mercedes‑EQ Formula E Team and led NEOM McLaren to their historic first Formula E win in 2024.

Jaguar TCS Racing have also confirmed a long‑term commitment to the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship by signing to participate in the GEN4 era, set to commence in 2026 and running through seasons 13‑16.   
  
Beyond its all‑electric concept, Formula E is unique in the world of motorsport for its choice of venues. The 2025/26 World Championship will see many events take place on temporary street circuits in the centre of the world’s major cities including, São Paulo, Jeddah, Tokyo and Monaco. Additional new venues include Miami and Madrid, with the season finale again set to play out across a double‑header race weekend in London.   

As an official manufacturer team in Formula E, Jaguar TCS Racing designs its own powertrain, which includes the motor generator unit, transmission, inverter, and rear suspension. Jaguar, via its long‑term Formula E technical partner Fortescue Zero, will also supply Envision Racing with its powertrain for the GEN3 Evo era.   

To control costs, the carbon fibre chassis and battery are common components and the same for all teams. This allows the focus to be on developing efficient and lightweight electric vehicle powertrains which will improve the performance and range of future JLR electric vehicles.   

Formula E remains a key priority for JLR and the company’s Reimagine strategy. As the premier all‑electric world championship, Formula E allows the team to test and develop new electric vehicle technologies in a high‑performance environment. It continues to be the test bed for the team’s Race to Innovate mission that will see Race to Road and Road to Race learnings that will help shape Jaguar’s all‑electric future.   

Through our Race to Inspire mission, Jaguar TCS Racing are committed to inspiring the future generation by using the race programme to create a positive impact on our planet and the communities in which we race. From competing in the world’s first net zero carbon race car to supporting and training the next generation of engineers and motorsport professionals.
