The fourth season of Ben and Toad's Contest started February 8, 2014. It airs at 8 am. The opening ceremony of Sochi 2014 was aired first. This is having 60 contestants and 30 weeks. At the end of the season, there is a top five.

The finals was moved to the Labor Day weekend so that the finals don't get run into the 2014 World Cup in Brazil in June and July.

The 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup qualification started in season 2 and is expected to end after the halfway point of season 5. It will run through season 3, season 4 and season 5. Switzerland was the only team at the 2015 Women's World Cup qualifiers that qualified for the Women's World Cup during the June 12-July 13 period of the 2014 FIFA World Cup.

Many people are predicting 2010 Olympic figure skating medalists Kim Yu-Na or Mao Asada to win this season. Also there were some people suggesting Nick Carter.

The official winner of Ben and Toad's Contest season 4 is Kim Yu-Na; after Germany lost their game against Croatia. Chile made it's first appearance in IndyCar since Pocono. Voting started on lap 220, after everyone on BATC was shocked that the German team from season 1 got a drive-through penalty for pit entry violation; so no points were awarded to Germany. The penalty points taken away from Germany were awarded to Croatia. The official IndyCar champion is Will Power; as he is playing as captain for Vortex on season 5. Season 19's cast was announced nearly the week after. NASCAR Sprint Cup's Oral B-500 happened the day after season 4's winner was announced, and was extended due to a green-white-checker.
