Vowles was on baby-watch across the British Grand Prix weekend with the birth of the child imminent throughout the Silverstone weekend, although fortunately the arrival was delayed until after the race. The couple have a daughter together, who was born in late 2023, with Vowles skipping the Mexico City Grand Prix to be present. Everyone at RacingNews365 sends their best and warmest congratulations to James and Rachel Vowles.
