The 2024 Formula 1 season has been marked by numerous discussions around the positions of FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem.
Former F1 driver Vitantonio Liuzzi is now FIA commissioner, playing a key role in the decision-making process during race weekends.
But there are more and more calls from teams and drivers for the FIA to appoint permanent and professional commissioners, so that there are no more complaints about the consistency of decisions and sanctions. . Calls not yet heard from Ben Sulayem but this could change according to the Italian.
Questioned on this subject, Liuzzi recognizes that “I can’t really say much, it’s secret.”
“Obviously, there's a lot of discussion on this topic. I think that may change in the future. Maybe he will change his position a little bit, and I'm sure, I even know, that the president is discussing closely with the teams because we all want things to move forward in a better way.”
“I'm sure the president is talking with F1 to find the best solution for all of us. Obviously we prefer it to be a little different, but whatever the decision, it will be good for both of us. For both of us, I I mean Formula 1 and the FIA.”
-The final races of the 2024 Formula 1 season have sparked widespread criticism of the stewards, becoming a major talking point at year-end press conferences. Drivers were particularly frustrated by the inconsistency in decision-making, citing a lack of clear guidelines in the penalties handed out.
“It's a great group of drivers and we work well together. Sometimes you can't satisfy everyone because everyone wants to… they have different points of view. But in the end, I think that every race we attend remains an incredible competition, an incredible spectacle, and that’s good for the sport.”
