Belgian Model and Former Pilot Nominated for FIA Presidency

Belgian model Virginie Philippot has joined the race for the presidency of the FIA (International Automobile Federation).

According to Lent.az, citing foreign media, the 33-year-old beauty is known for participating in the "Miss Belgium 2012" and "Miss International 2017" competitions. She also founded the Drive For Hope association, which helps orphaned children and supports education in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
