Bernie Ecclestone will pay $100 million to end a German corruption case that’s tainted his role as Formula One chief for more than three years.

Munich judges overseeing the trial since April signed off on the settlement after prosecutors agreed to have the case dropped upon the payment. Ecclestone said he would be able to transfer the amount within a week.
