Either ex-Ferrari boss Jean Todt or former World Rally champion Ari Vatanen will take over. Reuters reports that Todt is the favourite to win the election in Paris.

Mosley has been at the centre of some high profile rows about his management of motorsport – especially this summer with the FIA-Formula One Teams Association row that threatened this year’s F1 season.
