Mohammed Bin Sulayem, the President of the FIA, is facing legal action from FIA Member Clubs and Federations in the Americas. These actions come in response to recent allegations made against him. However, the FIA Ethics Committee has already cleared Ben Sulayem of any wrongdoing. The allegations involved his supposed interference in the race result of the 2023 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix and the certification of the Las Vegas Strip Circuit. Despite being acquitted, members from 27 countries in the Americas have published a letter on the FIA website expressing their trust in Ben Sulayem. The letter emphasizes that the Ethics Committee’s report unanimously absolves him of the baseless accusations. It also highlights that the FIA President acted with integrity, transparency, and independence. The statement further suggests that the accusations made by certain media outlets were solely intended to harm the FIA and its leadership. It asserts that the selection of the FIA President is solely the responsibility of its voting members and is not influenced by external parties. The letter concludes by recommending that the FIA take legal action against those who slander the organization and its leadership without justification. It reaffirms the signatories’ confidence in Mohammed Ben Sulayem’s leadership and his commitment to transforming the FIA into an ethical and transparent institution that better serves its members.
