Ukraine Motorsport Federation Demands FIA Sanctions Against Russian Counterpart

Ukraine's national motorsport authority has formally requested that the FIA, led by president Mohammed Ben Sulayem, impose sanctions on the Russian Automobile Federation. The Ukrainian federation's call stems from the Russian counterpart's decision to open offices within occupied territories of Ukraine.

This move by the Russian federation is seen by Ukraine as a violation of international sporting principles and a further escalation of political interference in sports. The Ukrainian motorsport community is urging the FIA to take decisive action to uphold the integrity of the sport and condemn such territorial claims through sporting organizations.
