With a legal challenge already underway and rivals locked out of last year’s election, Ben Sulayem now wants to make his tenure open-ended. FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem has proposed the removal of term limits on the presidency of motorsport’s governing body.
President Mohammed Ben Sulayem of the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) is advocating for the elimination of term restrictions on the FIA presidency. This alteration would enable him to continue serving in the role without a defined term limit. Sulayem's proposition comes amidst ongoing legal disputes and concerns over the fairness of the previous election process, which saw his competitors excluded.
If approved, the proposed amendment would have significant implications for the governance of motorsport, allowing Ben Sulayem to potentially lead the FIA indefinitely. The move has sparked debate within the motorsport community, with differing opinions emerging on the potential removal of presidential term limits within the organization.
