Ben Sulayem is unstoppable Mohammed Ben Sulayem has been president of the FIA since 2021 and recently received his second mandate. If there was a three-term limit on paper, Suleiman’s reign would last until 2033 at the latest, but this limit has now been dropped. According to the information highlighted by the BBC, the three jurisdictions were actually canceled at the meeting of the world motorsport council; This decision brought together a ‘Bulgarian’ majority of over 90 percent, more precisely 90.71 percent. But for the lifetime presidency, Ben Sulayem has another limit to meet: the maximum age limit to hold the office is 70 (he is 64). The British newspaper emphasized that this would be the next move of Sulayem, who plans to hold the federal baton for life. In addition to clearing the ground by removing one obstacle after another to his never-ending reign, Ben Sulayem continues to make it increasingly difficult for a potential rival to run. The deadline by which potential presidential candidates must submit a detailed list of their team of vice presidents has more than doubled to 100 days, from 49 days before the election date. “The decisions approved by our members reflect, in Sulayem’s words, the progress we have made together as a federation; through stronger governance, financial discipline and a clear and long-term vision, we are building an FIA better equipped to support our members, strengthen our championships and make a tangible contribution to motorsport and mobility around the world.”
