Colossus Bets launches first motorsport betting pools
Pools provider partners with new operator OneBet to provide betting service on WRC
Colossus Bets has launched the first ever World Rally Championship (WRC) racing pools betting service.
The service has been launched in partnership with OneBet, which is the official partner of the WRC event and a new betting operator focusing on motorsports.
The offering, available on OneBet’s site, starts with pools on the Spanish round of the WRC, where players must pick the top seven drivers for a crack at minimum jackpot guarantee of £25,000.
Colossus Bets’ CEO Bernard Marantelli said: “It has been an exciting challenge to collaborate with OneBet to create the world’s first pools on motor sport.
“We think the end product will appeal to both WRC fans and sports bettors and look forward to running pools across the WRC series.”
Morten Østberg, OneBet CEO and father of WRC driver Mads Østberg, said: “OneBet was started by a group of motor sport fans and professionals with the aim to bring even more excitement in the motor sport experience.
“Launching in the UK, the world ‘capital’ of motor sport is a big milestone and this will be a great adventure for both us and UK motor sports fans.”
OneBet is aiming for the full release of its sportsbook to UK punters in Q1 2018.
