Lewis Hamilton publicly criticized Mohammed Ben Sulayem, president of the FIA, in response to Susie Wolff’s legal complaint against the organization. Hamilton expressed his dissatisfaction with Ben Sulayem’s leadership and the alleged male dominance in the sport. The FIA conducted an investigation into the alleged conflict of interest involving Wolff and her partner, but ultimately closed the case.
