Abstract

[This chapter chronicles the career of Max Mosley as Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) president, a position he won from Jean-Marie Balestre in 1993 and held until 2009. A long-term ally of Bernie Ecclestone, as well as chair of the Manufacturer’s Commission at Fédération Internationale du Sport Automobile (FISA) since 1985, Mosley exploited cracks in the FIA’s institutional design and rallied support among the FIA’s growing member club portfolio to refresh the organisation. What Mosley did not foresee during his institutional restructuring of the FIA into a modern-day broker of global motorsports was that the old relations between Ecclestone’s business and the FIA, as well as the interlacing of the FIA and other sectors of society would pose legal (competition laws) and moral challenges (political lobbying). In particular, this chapter reviews the relations between the FIA, Ecclestone, and the European Commission as these symbolise the changes to the FIA’s institutional logic in a multi-faceted way. As a result, Mosley and his crew developed in the end an operational policy which transformed the FIA into a managed ecosystem.]
