Carlos Sainz Sr Shocks F1 World: Withdraws From FIA Presidency Race

Former F1 driver Carlos Sainz Sr has shocked the motorsport world by officially withdrawing his bid for the FIA presidency, leaving Mohammed Ben Sulayem uncontested in the upcoming election. In a detailed statement shared on social media, Sainz Sr expressed his decision not to pursue the prestigious position, citing concerns about compromising his commitments to the Dakar rally and his team at Ford.

Despite stepping back from the race, Sainz Sr emphasized his enduring passion for serving and leading in the motorsport industry, highlighting the need for significant changes within the organization.

The announcement has sent shockwaves through the F1 community, as speculation had been rife about Sainz Sr’s potential candidacy and the implications it could have had on the future direction of the FIA. With the field now seemingly clear for Ben Sulayem, all eyes are on the upcoming election to see how the leadership of the international motorsport governing body will unfold.

Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story as the FIA presidential election approaches and the motorsport landscape braces for potential changes at the highest level of governance.
