Racing driver Laura Villars launched legal action against Formula 1s governing body, the FIA; Villars is disputing a rule that has prevented her and others from challenging FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem in an election that was scheduled for December
The rule is ridiculous so I hope this challenge wins, but I expect nothing and am still assuming I’ll be disappointed.
I mean, in a way I sorta understand the logic of wanting candidates to at least have some level of support in all regions, but I’m not familiar enough with how the process works to know whether it is appropriate to ask why only one representative from South America stood on the Council.
