Todt re-elected FIA president

Jean Todt has been re-elected as president of the FIA at the federation’s Annual General Assembly in Paris this morning.

The FIA Twitter account confirmed the news which was a formality after his sole challenger, Briton David Ward, pulled out last month after receiving little support.

It is Todt’s second term in charge after succeeding Max Mosley in 2009.
