The FIA General Assembly is due to meet on Thursday, where it will vote on changes to its statutes.
The Austrian Automobile Association (OAMTC) cautioned FIA members about potential harm to the governing body’s credibility due to proposed changes in statutes presented by President Mohammed Ben Sulayem. The FIA General Assembly is scheduled to convene in Macau on Thursday to discuss various alterations. Among the proposed modifications is a restriction on challengers to Ben Sulayem for the FIA presidency, with a new election expected in December. The OAMTC has sent a letter to the FIA’s world council raising concerns about the reputation risks associated with the vote. In the letter, the club urges members to support a motion removing the vote on the FIA statute changes from the General Assembly’s agenda. They argue that these changes could further damage the FIA’s reputation for competent and transparent governance, especially given the timing in relation to the upcoming elections.
