FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem is allegedly pushing for new statutes that may prevent rivals from running against him. The BBC revealed revised protocols to be voted on at next month’s FIA General Assembly. These changes propose an earlier deadline for presidential candidates to declare their interest. Carlos Sainz Sr is reportedly considering running, but an earlier deadline could hinder his campaign. Potential conflicts of interest could implicate Sainz’s bid, potentially barring him from the election. Overall, the proposed changes aim to ensure consistency and integrity within the FIA’s election process.
