Mohamed Ben Sulayem, the president of the FIA, has stirred controversy by publicly supporting the crown prince of Saudi Arabia, Mohammed bin Salman, amidst the backdrop of the upcoming Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. In a tweet, Ben Sulayem praised the crown prince's leadership and vision, which has led to significant backlash given the prince's controversial reputation, particularly linked to the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Critics argue that Ben Sulayem's comments are inappropriate and politically charged, especially considering the FIA's role in overseeing Formula 1, which aims to remain apolitical.
