The FIA has appointed Tim Malyon as its new sporting director, replacing Steve Nielsen, while Tim Goss is stepping down as single-seater technical director. Malyon, who previously served as the FIA’s safety director, will take over from Nielsen at the end of January. He expressed his excitement about the role and his plans to bring further change to race direction operations and undertake a regulatory review. The FIA’s single-seater director, Nikolas Tombazis, welcomed Malyon’s promotion and praised Nielsen for his year of work. Nielsen felt the FIA was not willing to make the necessary changes to improve race control operations. Additionally, the FIA will need to find a new technical director for its single-seater department.
