Before this announcement was made, sources close to her upcoming campaign report that Mrs. Wolff, wife of billionaire and Mercedes F1 boss Toto Wolff, fired the first shot in what F1 insiders believe will be a fierce battle for the top position at the FIA, the governing body of Formula 1. The 41-year-old Scotswoman is the face of the campaign, which will be centered around the slogan: “Revitalizing the FIA”. She has garnered support from influential figures in the world of F1, including her husband Toto, who is her biggest supporter.
If she were to become the President of the FIA, the Wolffs would become a powerful couple rarely seen in any sport, comparable to the JayZ and Beyoncé of F1. Formula 1 CEO Stefano Domenicali will undoubtedly be pleased, as his employers and the commercial rights owners of F1, Liberty Media, have often clashed with Ben Sulayem. Having an ally within the FIA would make managing the show much smoother, similar to the dynamic between Bernie Ecclestone and Max Mosley in the past.
Susie Wolff’s rise through the ranks of motorsport has been steady but largely unnoticed, with no significant achievements to speak of. Her junior racing career, from karting to Formula Renault and Formula 3, was unremarkable. However, she somehow managed to secure a place in the DTM series, despite many observers believing she was not suited for the German touring car championship.
During her forgettable seven-year stint in the DTM, she finished 17th, 20th, 16th, 16th, 13th, and 18th in consecutive seasons, culminating in a 22nd place in her final attempt in 2012. Over more than 70 races in the series, she only scored points twice, both finishing in seventh place in 2020, which was her best season. Williams, under the leadership of Claire, saw potential in Ms. Wolff and hired her for the team, completing an interesting connection, as Toto had left his mark on Sir Frank’s team over a decade ago.
Continuing her journey in F1, Susie found a role as an ambassador for Mercedes, where Toto held a prominent position. This highlights how low the barrier was for an underachiever to secure such a prestigious role.
When that came to an end, without anyone really remembering what Susie achieved as Mercedes’ mascot, Mrs. Wolff joined Venturi Racing in Formula E as team principal in 2018. Using her own funds, it is presumed, she also acquired shares in the team. She astutely chose Merc’s powertrains for her vehicles!
But Susie, who was unemployed, did not remain in that state for long. Surprisingly, with no prior experience in managing a racing series, the female equivalent of Zelig in motorsport suddenly appeared this year as the managing director of the F1 Academy. Where did this come from? We were all shocked as the Wolffs of F1 Street gained even more influence.
The ultimate motivation behind launching the Susie4Prez campaign seems to have come from the secret group behind this power play. They were impressed with how Mrs. Wolff became the center of attention during the first edition of the shameful F1 Academy, which took place during the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix weekend. This series, where the 16 extremely bad race drivers made their debut, was affectionately nicknamed Formula Susie.
Regardless of how terrible, ridiculous, and sexist the concept of the F1 Academy is, with its 15 drivers who seem to be there only for their looks or family wealth, as there was no talented race driver among them. And there was no story there until one or more of them got hurt.
Instead, the focus was on Ms. Wolff, the supreme leader of the F1 Academy, getting more airtime in a weekend than Bruno Michel, head of F3 and F2 – a truly hardworking individual who earned his position – received in his entire career.
The TV cameras were infatuated with the new racing prodigy. It’s a thrilling tale of OrdinaryGirl to SuperGirl at the speed of light, from failed race driver to team boss to F1 Academy leader.
What comes next for the motorsport SuperGirl? Becoming the perfect candidate for the FIA throne, of course.
So, on this day, you have learned of the campaign “Susie Wolff: Make FIA Great Again Towards the Presidency of the FIA” for the first time on this site. In other words, the conflict between the Wolffs and Ben Sulayem of the FIA will intensify to a new level of controversy.
In conclusion, unverified reports suggest that one of the changes Wolff will advocate for is abandoning the traditional dark blue and gold colors of the FIA and replacing them with a vibrant Barbie pink logo to symbolize the new era of a Female FIA President.
