Lewis Hamilton's father could take a leadership role at the FIA. What will his responsibilities be?

Lewis Hamilton is currently racing for Ferrari, while his father could soon join the FIA structure and take on one of its key positions.

Details: According to Planet F1, in recent months Anthony Hamilton has been serving as an advisor to FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem, focusing on the development of young drivers. This initiative is known as the 'Young Driver Development Pathway' (YDDP).

Now, the father of the seven-time Formula 1 world champion is aiming for an official post within the FIA. Anthony is expected to appear alongside Ben Sulayem at the formal launch of the YDDP, which will take place in China next month.

Overall, Anthony Hamilton has made a strong impression on the FIA president, and negotiations between the two are already underway.

Background: Since Mohammed Ben Sulayem took office as FIA president, his tenure has not been without controversy. Amid these developments, a potential challenger has emerged—Carlos Sainz Sr., who has expressed his willingness to run for the presidency. Some have seen a conflict of interest here, as his son races in Formula 1, but Carlos Sainz Jr. doesn't see an issue with this.
