🇨🇦 Maddy Lemke

Maddy Lemke is a developing driver with a Racer Rating of 1,486, placing her among club-level competitors; this represents a driver early in their racing career with limited competitive data and results against peers rather than established professionals. Her record consists of a single season in TC America powered by Skip Barber in 2024, during which she started five races for Ascent Racing and finished every one on the podium, averaging a second-place finish. Despite this perfect podium record, she never won a race.[1]

Lemke's competitive picture reveals a clear pattern within the field. She consistently outpaced Alan Grossberg, an FIA Bronze-graded driver and former champion, finishing ahead of him in all four races they shared. However, she struggled against the series' front-runners; she finished behind PJ Groenke, an FIA Silver-graded driver and champion, in all five races they contested together, and behind Alex Garcia, another Bronze-graded driver, in all three of their shared races. This suggests Lemke was a capable mid-field runner within the field but lacked the pace to challenge the series' strongest competitors.

Lemke has since retired from racing. Her single season yielded valuable podium finishes and demonstrated she could compete solidly against mid-tier professional opposition, but the speed gap to the top of her field and her lack of race wins suggest the career path did not continue.
