Formula E CEO, Jeff Dodds, to donate $250,000 to charity if Verstappen DOESN’T win

23 Feb 2024
  • Who Will Secure the Championship and Choose the Charity?

TNT Sports has aired an interview between Jeff Dodds, CEO of Formula E, and Jermaine Jenas, Formula E’s Lead Presenter and former pro footballer, in which the former makes a huge statement on how predictable Formula 1 has become… a statement worth $250,000.

Wager of the Year

Wager of the Year

At the end of the interview, when discussing wider motorsport predictions, Jeff makes the wager of the year, stating: “If any one of the other 19 drivers win it, we’ll give a quarter of a million dollars to the charity of choice of the driver that does win it”

The proclamation aims to highlight the unpredictability of Formula E - especially when compared to F1 - and make a substantial donation to a charitable cause. As you may know, in Formula E, every season (with the exception of Jean-Éric Vergne’s double crown) a different driver has won the World Championship. So far, Season 10 has proven no different, with three different drivers, all from different teams being crowned champions of the first three races.
