FIA President Elected For Four-Year Term

Max Mosley was unanimously reelected by the FIA General Assembly, the supreme executive body of the FIA.

     
  Max Mosley has been elected President of the FIA for a further four years. It is the fourth consecutive term for Mosley, making him the most popular president of the FIA in the modern era.
 
 

He was reelected unanimously by the FIA General Assembly, the supreme executive body of the FIA, which consists of the presidents of each of the FIA's member clubs and national organisations.
 
On October 28, over 300 delegates from 93 countries, representing over 160 automobile clubs, gathered at the Grand Hotel Parco Dei Principi in Rome, to vote on whether Mosley should be reelected. It was a record attendance for an annual General Assembly, which this year was hosted by Italy’s Automobile Club D’Italia as part of its centenary celebrations.
 
Mosley was the only presidential candidate but the vote was not merely a ceremonial procedure. As part of the voting procedure, delegates were

offered a secret ballot so they could register any opposition with anonymity. But none of the delegates wanted take up the offer. Instead, Radovan Novak from the Czech Republic automobile club, stood and requested a vote of acclamation. The delegates responded with warm applause. Max Mosley was reelected president with the unanimous support of the Assembly.
 
It is to be Mosley’s fourth term in office. He was first elected President of FISA (Federation Internationale du Sport Automobile), the FIA's then sport division, in 1991 and re-elected in 1992. In 1993, after FISA was merged with the main body of the FIA, Mosley was elected President of the FIA for the first time. He was re-elected in 1997, 2001 and again this year.
