An extraordinary general assembly vote Tuesday in Paris endorsed Max Mosley
to continue as president of the FIA.
Mosley called for the vote two months ago, after a London tabloid printed a
story and posted website video of his private life, alleging a Nazi-themed
sado-masochistic session with prostitutes.
Full statement from the FIA:
During the Extraordinary General Assembly (EGA) held in Paris today, the FIA
Member Clubs voted on a motion of confidence in the FIA President.
The FIA membership voted as follows:
For the motion: 103
Against the motion: 55
Abstentions: 7
Invalid votes 4
Voting in the EGA was made by secret ballot. Votes were counted in private
by the FIA legal department in the presence of four scrutineers, selected by
the EGA from a list of Delegates proposed by the Chairman of the meeting
(the President of the FIA Senate).
The entire voting procedure was supervised by an external Huissier de
Justice (French state-appointed public witness).
