Formula E has released a statement surrounding its presenter Jermaine Jenas, who was sacked by the BBC on Friday after allegedly sending inappropriate messages to a female colleague. The former professional footballer has been a football pundit and presenter for the BBC for several years, since retiring from football in 2016 aged 32. Ahead of the recently completed FE season, Jenas was announced as the all-electric championship's new lead presenter, replacing Vernon Kay. Following the recent allegations and his axing from the BBC, FE has released a statement regarding its presenter. A Formula E spokesperson said: “Jermaine Jenas was part of Formula E’s presentation team for Season 10, which ended in July this year. "As per the process followed in previous Seasons, we will announce our presenter line-up for Season 11 in due course. "This decision will be carefully considered, taking into account the high standards we expect to be upheld at Formula E.” Jenas is reportedly letting his lawyers deal with the allegations.
