FIA presidency hopeful Jean Todt has named his complete candidacy team ahead of next month's election.

The official statement reads as follows:

"On Friday the FIA opened submissions for the FIA Presidential election and I am pleased to confirm that I have formally submitted my complete candidacy team.

"In accordance with the statutory requirements of the FIA, the list includes a Deputy President and seven vice-presidents for Sport; a Deputy President and seven vice-presidents for Automobile, Mobility and Tourism; and a President and five members of the FIA Senate.

"I am delighted to have the support of what I believe is a dynamic leadership team with outstanding experience and knowledge of all the issues central to motoring and motor sport today. It is also a team representative of the entire FIA with members from across Africa, Asia-Pacific, Europe, North America, and Latin America.

"I am particularly proud that so many leading members of the FIA family have backed our vision for the future. Both the sporting and mobility sides of the FIA share common values supporting fairness for consumers and competitors, for safety and sustainability on road and track, and the right to enjoy the freedom that the automobile can provide.

"To coincide with the submission of our full candidacy list our team is also publishing our 'Road Map to Renewal' which summarises our key policy proposals for motor sport and mobility. We recognise that the FIA needs to renew itself and through innovation, excellence and teamwork, we can better meet the needs of our membership and meet the challenges of the years ahead."
