24 May 2021

Max Mosley, who as President of the FIA established the FIA Foundation, has died aged 81.

The FIA Foundation has issued a powerful tribute which is available here. It says that he leaves a powerful legacy of road safety action which has transformed vehicle safety and the global response to road traffic injury. His achievements include European crash test legislation and the independent car safety tests of Euro NCAP and Global NCAP, which together are estimated to have saved many tens of thousands of lives. The FIA Foundation, set up by Max Mosley in 2001-2, supports road safety and sustainable transport programmes in more than 100 countries worldwide and is a leader in advocacy for global road safety and the rights of children to safe and healthy journeys.
