F1's owners Liberty Media wantꩲ Ben Sulayem removed from his position as head of the governing body amid an escalating civilꦿ war between the two parties, according to a report by . 

Former BAR and Benetton team principal and Motorsp🔯ort UK chairman David Richards has been suggested as a replacement. The 70-year-old Briton is supposedly “n🐻ot averse” to the idea. 

However, in order for Ben 🐬Sulayem to be overthroꦡwn, “real misconduct” must be proved, as per Sport1. 

Ben Sulayem has found 🍌himself at the centre of several controversies since taking over from Jean Todt in December 2021.&nb💯sp;

The FIA was forced to defend Ben Sulayem on Friday after s🌸exist remarks attributed to the president were published🐎 by The Times. 

Ben Sulayem is quoted on an a🔯rchived version of his old website saying he does “not like women who think they are smarter than men.”&n꧑bsp;

An FIA𒆙 spokesperson responded: "The remarks in this archived website from 2001 do not reflect the ♏president's beliefs.

“He has a strong record on promoting women and equality in sport, whi🐬ch he is happy to be judged on. It was a central part of his manifesto and acti🧸ons taken this year and the many years he served as vice-president for sport prove this.”

F1 also accused Ben Sulayem of making 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:“unacceptable” comments about the value of☂ the sport in an explos♌ive letter to the FIA. 

The two parties remain at loggerheads over several topics,๊ including the potential future expansion of the 🔴F1 grid.
