Formula E appoint new chief in MASSIVE shake-up

Formula E has announced the appointment of a new CEO in a new leadership shift that will hopefully continue to push the series on.

2023 has already been a year of change for the series with a successful rebranding taking place at the start of the season, and now a new CEO is arriving to push the series on further.

The change has seen the serving CEO, Jamie Reigle, stand down from his role and move into an advisory role to help ensure a smooth transition.

Jeff Dodds is the man selected to replace Reigle and tasked with elevating the popularity of the world's most sustainable motorsport series.

The 2023 season has brought even more eyes to Formula E with its unique strategy and a five-driver title battle, and this change in leadership is a promising one for the series in 2024 and beyond.
