Montoya: Sainz Sr. is the best candidate for the FIA
Former Formula 1 driver Juan Pablo Montoya considers Carlos Sainz Sr. the best candidate for the FIA presidency.…
Juan Pablo Montoya: "I like Sainz Sr., we get along great. If he decides to run for president of the FIA, it will be good for Formula 1.
Lately, if something is wrong with sports, people blame Ben Sulayem. Many people don't like his insistence on swearing, they don't support him, he loses confidence. But even if everyone is unhappy with him, it is unlikely to affect the vote. The FIA is a very politicized system.
Will they support Sainz Sr. in the election? I don't know. FIA presidents usually stay in office much longer, but of all the options, Carlos is the best candidate. However, I do not know why he would put this burden on himself. He is an active racing driver, his son plays for Williams – they may talk about a conflict of interest. If something goes wrong, many will question his objectivity.
Actually, I don't think there will be any problems with Sainz Jr. If he doesn't do something really wrong and his father doesn't interfere with the stewards during the race, there shouldn't be a problem."
