Newly-elected FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem has undertaken a restructuring of parts of the governing body, as he begins his tenure of world motorsport.

Ben Sulayem was elected in mid-December to succeed Jean Todt, who did not stand for a fourth term, having taken office in 2009.

Ben Sulayem chaired his first FIA World Motor Sport Council in digital format on Thursday, alongside his leadership team, and appointed Presidents of several FIA Commissions.

Ben Sulayem has also launched ‘a new and robust governance process’ that will include a ‘fully independent financial audit of the FIA’.

To this end a Chief Executive Officer of the FIA is to be recruited.

Other key appointments were also made, with former Williams and McLaren Sporting Director Sam Michael replacing Sir Patrick Head as the President of the Safety Commission, while Iron Dames founder Deborah Mayer has replaced Michele Mouton at the helm of the Women in Motorsport Commission.

Felipe Massa has been appointed as President of the Drivers’ Commission that includes fellow ex-F1 racers Karun Chandhok and Vitaly Petrov on the Single-Seater department.

“A new era has begun for the FIA, through the creation of a governance framework founded on openness and global diversity,” said Ben Sulayem.

“This is a key pillar of our strategy and I warmly thank the World Councils’ Members, who have approved the changes.

“Responsibility and authority of World Councils, which emanate from our Members, will be increased.

“A more effective oversight model will be designed, stakeholders’ priorities will be aligned, and a responsibly profitable FIA operation will be ensured.

“To reach these objectives, the Federation’s governing bodies and administration will work closely together to make the FIA the global voice of motor sport and mobility.”

The virtual WMSC gathering was separate from the ongoing report into the 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix and prospective changes to the structure of race control.

That report is due to be presented to the F1 Commission on February 14 with any changes due to be formally ratified at the WMSC’s next official meeting on March 18.

    Mr. President of the FIA, first of all accept my greetings for your honorable duty.
    I think based on the post-season situation 2021 in F1; The first thing you need to show is that it supports and upholds justice in the FIA ​​institution in the face of violations such as the manipulation of the last lap in the last race of the 2021 season in Abu Dhabi, by the Director of F1 races the total unbalanced (why not i corrupt) Michael Masi.
    There is no one in the World even today after two months from that black day for the sport of F1, who did not realize that, Michael Masi and others in F1 and FIA produced a fake, pumped F1 Champion and No.1 of accidents in recent years in F1.
    F1 Black Day on December 12, 2021 at the Abu Dhabi track, is not “cleansed” with words of promise, but with the administration of justice in what has historically fueled F1, returning the title to pilot Sir Lewis Hamilton, who convincingly led that race.

      If you actually believe any of that drivel you wrote, you must be an absolute idiot. But keep on crying, your tears are delicious.

    I’ve been exploring terpene-based products https://terpenewarehouse.com/collections/live-resin recently, and I’m really enjoying the experience. The scents are well off, customary, and pleasant. They enlarge a nice caress to my day after day drill, dollop beat up a compare the willing and atmosphere. A massive find after anyone who appreciates perfumed wellness tools.
