BBC F1 commentator Jack Nicholls has been removed from his Formula E role after he was was accused of inappropriate behaviour towards female staff members.
It had already been confirmed that he would not be working at the Jakarta ePrix in Round 11 of the Championship this coming weekend, but initially, neither the broadcaster or Formula E had announced the reason why. But now it has emerged his sacking followed an independent investigation following complaints by three women.
It was alleged that Nicholls had touched the women, one of whom he was in a relationship with, inappropriately. According to a report in the Times, two further complaints were reportedly made by witnesses of the behaviour.
