Formula E presented a new charity programme at the Berlin E-Prix. The “Better Futures Fund“ supports charity organisations and local projects in cities hosting Formula E races. The money will primarily be made available to long-term initiatives with ecological and social impacts. For the rest of the current season, a fund of 100,000 dollars will be divided between the four cities Berlin, Shanghai, Portland and London. In Season 11, the fund will help separate charity organisations at all race venues all over the world. Hankook took the same approach last year, when it supported local and non-profit organisations under the motto “A pretty good thing”.
