Overview

• The FIA released a 29-person World Motor Sport Council eligibility list that presidential candidates must use to select seven regional vice-presidents.
• South America has a single eligible name—Fabiana Ecclestone—who is on Mohammed Ben Sulayem’s re-election ticket, preventing opponents from completing a legally compliant team.
• Africa’s two eligible figures, Amina C. Mohamed and Rodrigo Rocha, support the incumbent, with Rocha included on Ben Sulayem’s presidential list.
• Declared challengers Tim Mayer, Laura Villars and Virginie Philippot have not announced full line-ups, with presidential lists due by October 24.
• The WMSC submission window closed in September under the oversight of the FIA Nominations Committee, and the vote is set for December 12 at the General Assembly in Tashkent, Uzbekistan.
