At a meeting immediately following the FIA Extraordinary General Assembly on July 1st, 2004, the FIA Senate unanimously called on Max Mosley to rescind his decision to step down in October 2004 and to continue in office at least until the end of his mandate in October 2005. The Senate informed Mr Mosley that his early departure would damage the interests of the FIA.
The FIA Senate met in London today and were informed by Max Mosley that he had received approaches from all sections of the FIA making the same points as the Senate and even going as far as to say that it would be irresponsible for him to step down this year. Accordingly, he feels bound to accede to the Senate’s request. He expressed his thanks for the confidence shown in him both by the Senate and the full membership of the FIA.
