Formula 1 has officially announced that Flavio Briatore’s name will be on the organisation chart in 2022, in a role of ambassador in charge of developing commercial collaborations.

It wasn’t a secret any longer.  While there had been persistent rumours that Briatore was returning to Formula 1, Briatore recently said he was “pleased and honoured to be able to continue to support the commercial and entertainment development of F1” a sport he “deeply loves” and which “has been such an important part” of his “professional life”.

“Flavio Briatore, in his capacity as a long-serving ambassador for Formula 1, will continue to support us in building our relationships with existing and potential promoters and partners,” said a F1 spokesperson. He will help us develop commercial and entertainment collaborations at a time when Formula 1 is enjoying renewed media interest.”
