I will quit presidency - Mosley

Max Mosley
Mosley says he will now concentrate on family matters when his term ends

Max Mosley has confirmed he will not stand for re-election when his term as president of motorsport's governing body the FIA ends in October.

The 69-year-old, who had last month hinted he might go back on an earlier decision to stand down, revealed his decision in a letter to FIA members.

"I have decided to reconfirm my decision - I will not be a candidate in October," Mosley wrote.

Mosley has endorsed former Ferrari team boss Jean Todt as his successor.

The Frenchman has not yet put his name forward as a candidate to the World Motor Sport Council.

Finnish former world rally champion Ari Vatanen, however, confirmed his intention to succeed Mosley last week.

More soon.
