The FIA have confirmed that Michael Masi has left the governing body to relocate to Australia.
Former F1 Race Director Masi was replaced in his role in February following months of in-depth internal investigations over the controversial events of the 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
It was announced at the time that Masi would be offered a new position within the FIA amid changes at the top level of the sport's race governance.
However, it has now been confirmed that Masi has left the governing body altogether.
