Todt re-elected FIA president

Jean Todt was unanimously re-elected for a second term as president of motorsport’s ruling body the FIA yesterday.

The result was a foregone conclusion as the 67-year-old Frenchman was unopposed in the election after Britain’s David Ward withdrew from the race last month after failing to secure enough support to be nominated. Todt has been president of the FIA since October 2009, following a career in motor sport management with Peugeot in world rallying and later, from 1992, with further huge success at Ferrari from 1993 in the Michael Schumacher era. In contrast to four years ago when he won the election by 135 votes to 49 for his rival, Finn Ari Vatenen, Todt this time only needed a show of hands from FIA delegates.
