Carlos Sainz Sr, the father of F1 driver 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Carlos Sainz,🅠 i🐻s reportedly considering to run for FIA president later this year.

The two-time World Rally champion has emerged as a candidate to rival incumbent Mohammed Ben Sulayem inꦛ the FIA presidential election that will take place in December this year, according to Sky Sports News.

63-year-old Sainz is said to have “wid🌄espread support from executives across the various motorsport categories that the FIA h☂as jurisdiction over”.

Crucially, a possible conflict of interest over Sainz governing the sport in which his son competes in is “not expected to be a concern” among F1 teams.

Sky Sports News report that S𝓀ainz “would꧅ be able to delegate any topics considered to be impacting the competitive picture”.

Sain꧋z would bꦚe viewed as a candidate with personal integrity - at a time the FIA has come under heavy scrutiny following several controversies surrounding Ben Sulayem.

Ben𓆉 Sulayem has been in office since he was elec🐬ted president in 2021 and is determined to continue for another four-year term when the election is held in Uzbekistan on 12 December. 

The Emirati’s leadership has been questioned by several high-profile figures in the sport, including Robert Reid, who resigned from his rol✅e as deputy president for sport last month.

Reid expressed concerns over the direction of governance 𒉰at the FIA under Ben Sulay🐻em.

F1 drivers want stronger voice

F1 drivers have called to be more involved in the FIA’s decisi♚on-making proce✃ss in the wake of unease about Ben Sulayem’s tenure.

Speaking at last weekend’s Miami Grand Prix, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton insisted that the Grand Prix Drivers’ Association (GPDA) needs to hold “a p🦹ower seat at the table” in regards 💝to the governance of F1.

"I think ultimately the GPDA is very unified. Ultimately, we want to be able to work closely with the FIA,” the ಞseven-time world champion said.

“I think everyone, all of us want to cont💛inue to work together and make the sport better. And of course, we've faced a bit of an uphill challen๊ge in that communication over time.

"Ultimately, we don't hold a power seat at the table and that needs to change, in my opinion. If you look at other sports that have unions, that may be something that coꦅmes into play at some stage.

"We don't want to control things; we just want to collaborate with them more a🧔nd h🦩ave our voices heard.

"Ultimately,♔ people making decisions for others that ha🌼ve never been in that position, it's good to have the point of view from the driver's perspective, and that's all we try to give."

Sainz Sr is a figure who would both c🎃ommand the respect of F1 drivers and be keen to work iꦛn a collaborate manner.
