Leading engineer Tim Goss has recently departed from his role as the single-seater technical director at the FIA, making him the third high-profile figure to exit the organization in the past month. This follows the resignations of sporting director Steve Nielsen and Deborah Mayer, who headed the FIA's commission for women.
The departure of Goss, expected to join a Formula 1 team, remains unaddressed in terms of a replacement by the FIA, with FIA single-seater director Nikolas Tombazis expressing regret but acknowledging Goss's desire to pursue new career paths.
Meanwhile, the FIA has named Tim Malyon as Nielsen's successor, citing his extensive experience, especially in safety, and aiming to fortify sporting and regulatory practices. The recent series of high-profile exits from the FIA has raised concerns about the organization's stability, prompting discussions within the motorsport community about the current state of the FIA's leadership under president Mohammed Ben Sulayem, who has faced various controversies since his election.
