Showdown at the FIA: Ben Sulayem vs. Mayer

  • Mohammed Ben Sulayem and Tim Mayer will compete in the race for FIA president on July 3, 2025, near Silverstone, England.
  • Tim Mayer, a former FIA steward fired last November via text by an assistant to Ben Sulayem, decided to challenge Sulayem’s re-election bid.
  • Tim Mayer, whose father Teddy Mayer previously led McLaren, announced his bid for FIA presidency during a media event held near Silverstone before the British Grand Prix practice.
  • Mayer decided to enter the race after several months of evaluating his prospects, indicating his belief that he has a strong chance to win the election scheduled for December 12.
  • This contest signals a rare challenge to Ben Sulayem’s second term and may limit other candidates due to the FIA election process complexities.
