Jean Todt says he will not push to remain FIA president beyond 2021. The Frenchman, 74, is currently serving his third four-year term – the maximum under the current FIA statutes.
And even amid Formula 1’s unprecedented crisis due to the coronavirus crisis, the former Scuderia Ferrari Formula 1 team principal Jean Todt insists he will depart late next year as scheduled.
“Despite the fact that I love what I do and I have so much passion and energy for it, even if they ask me, I will not change the statutes,” he said, as reported earlier this week by motorsport-total.com.
At the same time, Jean Todt said he is keeping extremely busy amid the pandemic: “We have a crisis team within the FIA,” he said. “They speak online every few days. We discuss how we can contribute to the world, now and later – even after the crisis, because even then there will be consequences.” – the former Ferrari boss concluded.
