Brundle slates FIA over 'extreme revolving door'

P1racenews AI automatic summary:


The FIA has had a number of major exits in the past year – including most recently race director Niels Wittich.

Sky Sports F1 commentator Martin Brundle criticized the FIA’s frequent personnel changes, referring to it as “extreme” specifically in relation to Niels Wittich’s sudden departure as race director. The unexpected removal of Wittich and the subsequent appointment of Rui Marques prompted concerns about the governing body’s stability and decision-making process among F1 drivers. Brundle highlighted the lack of time for the FIA to address internal issues and communicate effectively with the drivers, who have expressed frustrations with recent controversies under President Mohammed Ben Sulayem’s leadership. Fellow pundit Danica Patrick emphasized the importance of valuing drivers’ opinions and involvement in decision-making processes, especially considering the risks they take on the track. The departure of Wittich raised questions about safety protocols and decision-making within the FIA, with both Brundle and Patrick advocating for better communication and collaboration between the organization and the drivers for the sport’s overall well-being.
