DRL president Rachel Jacobson said:
The sky is now the limit for DRL fans to get skin in the game, and we're thrilled to partner with DraftKings to transform our high-speed race competition into the ultimate sport to bet on. The opportunity for us to elevate our engagement through all forms of gaming and gambling will only increase as mobile betting becomes more adopted across the country.
As a part of the partnership, DraftKings will get exclusive rights to marketing materials. This means its logo can be displayed on race gates, drone stands, and other branded areas you can see during a race. Pre-race wagers and in-race bets will be available for fans wanting to bet on the fast-paced sport.
If you use DraftKings, you might have already seen drone racing introduced onto the platform. This was a free-to-play version to see how fans would react. The 2020 DRL season saw an average of 30% more entries compared to other new sports, totaling 150,000 entries to date.

Our expertise in sports betting combined with DRL's stats-packed competition will make this a fun and seamless opportunity to engage their avid audience along with tech-savvy, adrenaline-loving sports fans.
