Formula E boss makes split donation to charity after "tongue-in-cheek" Max Verstappen F1 title bet.
Dodds promised in February to give the sum to charity if Verstappen failed to win the title for the fourth year in a row, adding the Red Bull driver was “absolutely nailed on to win” this season.
In theory, Doggs would not have had to honour his bet, but he has decided to pay the money regardless. “What started as a very tongue-in-cheek ‘bet’ at the start of the season has evolved into a serious commitment to support gender equity within our championship, with the ultimate goal of seeing women competing full-time in Formula E,” Dodds explained.
