I don't get it? Did they want to lose?

It wasn't a Clicky link so Couldbt read but maybe it was something to do with if they do really badly then next time they are in a race their odds are much bigger prices and someone betting on then stands to make a shed load of money if they then ace the race.

Of he could have just been paid a lot of money to loose

Well doesn't explain anything does it

Just makes them sound like stupid childish idiots. Bonding excercise? God I must be old cos I'd not consider taking any form
Of drug that could harm me or my friends a bonding excercise!

Wheresmy, that's what I thought. It doesn't make much sense.

Time for a new team if the one they have can't play honestly
