FIA and ASO joint statement

19.01.21

The Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) together with the Amaury Sport Organisation (ASO) and the FIA ETRC promoter strongly condemns the unsavoury and demeaning comments directed at FIA ETRC truck racing driver Aliyyah Koloc and her sister Yasmeen by two competitors in the Dakar Rally and will continue to invest significant resources and expertise in developing initiatives to inspire and encourage the participation of girls and young women in motor sport. Adherence to ethical principles and promoting a diverse and inclusive culture across our sport are of the utmost importance to the FIA and the FIA Women in Motorsport Commission.
