Nothing in the past 10yrs though, so the rules may have changed. The closest we came to knowing was Australia last year, but that was "restarted" and the Alpines were both out. 1990 Portugal - Caffi, Suzuki (accident) classified 13th and 14th 1991 Adelaide - Gugelmin (spun off) classified 14th. 1997 Canada - Panis (accident) classified 11th 2003 Brazil - Webber, Alonso (accident) classified 9th and 3rd 2009 Malaysia - Vettel, Buemi, Fisichella (spun off) - classified 15th, 16th, 18th 2014 Japan - Bianchi (accident) classified 20th |

The inaugural FIA CEO has pulled the pin, only 18 months after starting the job. The release talks about restructure work that's been done but with an organisation the size of the FIA, 18 months wouldn't give enough time to get a full restructure done and there would still be plenty to do.
Wonder if it is really a case of her wanting to get back to her roots in the mainstream automotive industry or if there is unhappinesss at the FIA and this is simply the latest in the list of senior figures getting out because they've had enough? |

It could be coincidental the timing of her departure, but either way, it’s not what the FIA needs. It needs stability right now

Well it's probably also a position that many would consider as a short term position, anything good you do is quiet or unnoticed by design and ANYTHING bad in the FIA falls at your feet. And guessing the piles of cash not being at the FIA are much greater

Information on whistle-blower leaked?
Explains the resignation of the CEO and also the move back to FOM of Steve Neilsen on the face of it. What a mess of conflicting leaks and interests! Even though the allegations of interference by El Presidente were dismissed, I have to say that IF they in fact came from Neilsen (highly respected) then they suddenly have a lot more credence to them. |

Sounds like a dysfunctional and toxic environment.

Too many signs of unrest atm. Hopefully it won't get out of hand.
