International Automobile Federation, also known as FIA, is a privately owned organization headquartered in France. Founded in 1904, it operates with approximately 490 employees and reported $216.8M in revenue as of 2025. Functioning as a tier 1 media tech buyer, the organization specializes in motorsports and cycling. It is a non-profit entity responsible for regulating and promoting motorsports worldwide, with responsibilities that include setting safety standards for motorsports, organizing and sanctioning racing events, and promoting road safety. The FIA also governs international motorsport competitions such as Formula One, the World Rally Championship, and the World Endurance Championship.
On August 21, the International Automobile Federation (FIA) began testing a new particle filtration system at Zandvoort, aimed at preventing tyre, brake, and engine debris from washing away from the circuit. This prototype installation in the Netherlands is part of a broader research program examining how motorsport can better understand and reduce particulate pollution. This initiative followed protests from the Ukrainian government, which wrote to the FIA on August 20 to object to the decision to lift its ban on Russian and Belarusian competitors in international motorsport events. The FIA had initially imposed this ban in February 2022 following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, a decision that critics highlighted on August 19 as effectively abandoning most steps to prevent Russia from exploiting motorsport for propaganda. Also on August 20, the FIA's free-to-play esports hill climb collaboration with RaceRoom officially launched, opening entries for its European Hill Climb Cup on PC, with finalists eligible for an in-person final in Luxembourg. Earlier on August 20, the FIA confirmed that Formula 1’s five-second warning would remain part of the pre-start procedure, despite single-seater director Nikolas Tombazis stating that a 2026 power unit regulation issue for getting cars off the line cleanly was no longer considered a "safety issue."
