Formula One increases prize money, adds races for Esports Series

Formula One has more than doubled the prize money for this year's Esports world championship and will include more races and live events on the calendar.

Under a different title sponsor in New Balance, the total prize pot will be £500,000 when the Esports Series begins on April 8, a big increase on the £200,000 on offer in 2018.
