Laura Villars Sues FIA to Halt Election, Challenges Mohammed Ben Sulayem Advantage

Villars has sued in Paris to suspend the 12 Dec. FIA presidential vote, arguing that ballot rules and a lone South American VP option, Fabiana Ecclestone, on Ben Sulayem’s slate, is blocking rivals. The court set a 10 Nov. hearing and invited mediation. “This isn’t democracy,” she said, seeking reforms to ensure transparency, pluralism, and compliance with the statutes.
