Stefano Domenicali will remain as the president and CEO of Formula 1 through 2029, F1 announced March 12.
The five-year renewal comes after Domenicali began in the role starting in 2021.
“I am honored to continue to lead this incredible sport, which I love and has been part of my life since my childhood and grateful to the Liberty Media Team for their trust,” Domenicali said in a release. “Together, with all the relevant F1 stakeholders, we will continue to serve the best interest of our fans, as they are the heartbeat of everything we do. The passion, the energy and the adrenaline are the fuel that powers me every day to give my absolute best to Formula 1.”
“We are thrilled to renew Stefano and look forward to his leadership alongside the talented management of Formula 1 for the years ahead,” Derek Chang, president of Liberty Media, added. “Stefano has been an excellent steward of the business, building on its successful foundation and accelerating Formula 1’s rate of growth both commercially and in fan engagement. His energy and enthusiasm for the sport translate into highly effective strategy and results.
“On behalf of Liberty, we are thankful for his partnership and incredibly optimistic about the continued success the F1 team can drive for the sport, our fans, partners and shareholders.”
