After allegations were made against FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem, the verdict into the investigation has been revealed.
FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem has been cleared of allegations of interference in two incidents last year following an independent investigation that found no evidence of wrongdoing. One allegation suggested he tried to influence the results of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix to reverse a penalty imposed on Fernando Alonso. The penalty on Alonso was initially issued incorrectly but was later corrected, allowing him to regain his podium finish. Another claim against Ben Sulayem involved purportedly obstructing the track certification process for the Las Vegas Grand Prix. The FIA Compliance Department, with external advisors, conducted a thorough review and concluded there was no substantiated evidence of interference. Ben Sulayem’s cooperation and transparency during the investigation were commended, and the allegations have been officially dismissed ahead of the start of the 2024 F1 season.
