At the end of the year, the FIA will elect its new President. For now, the race for this position is a duel between the outgoing President, Jean Todt, and David Ward – former General Director of the FIA Foundation – who recently announced his candidacy.<\/p>\n

But ultimately, the British man stated a few days ago that he had not been able to gather the necessary support to successfully run his candidacy and that he was therefore withdrawing from the presidential race.<\/p>\n

\u00ab It was not possible for me to secure the necessary number of [support from] regional vice-presidents of sport to ensure the eligibility of my list. Therefore, I would like to congratulate Jean Todt who will serve a second term […], \u00bb stated David Ward in a letter addressed to the FIA.<\/p>\n

In order to be eligible, Ward needed to obtain the support of seven vice-presidents, which he failed to do. This leaves the field open to Jean Todt, who is now the sole candidate and is expected to be elected for a second four-year term as head of the International Automobile Federation without surprise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
