- Mosley helped shape modern F1 between 1993 and 2009
- Ecclestone says former FIA president was ‘like family’
Tributes from across the motor racing world have been paid to Max Mosley, the former president of Formula One’s governing body, the Federation Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA), who has died of cancer aged 81. Alongside F1’s former chief executive Bernie Ecclestone, Mosley played a fundamental role in shaping modern F1 and motor racing as president of the FIA between 1993 and 2009.
He leaves a lasting legacy in his strident and successful push toward safety in F1, motor racing and road cars.
