Personal life

Todt is married to Darina and has a son, who was born on 1 January 2024.[1]

Career

Todt is the manager of major racing drivers, including Daniil Kvyat, Felipe Massa,[2] Pastor Maldonado, James Calado,[3] Charles Leclerc, José María López, Caio Collet, Marcus Armstrong, Gabriele Minì, James Wharton, Martinius Stenshorne and Christian Ho.[4][5][6][7][8] In 2003, Todt founded All Road Management to scout, manage and develop talents able to reach the top in motorsport from karting to F1, through the different single-seater formulas, GT, Endurance as well as new categories such as Formula E.[9] Until the end of 2018, he was the co-owner of the motorsport team ART Grand Prix.[10][11]

Todt is seen as being very influential in Massa's move from Sauber to Ferrari. There were rumours in mid-2007 that Todt could take over Scuderia Toro Rosso Formula One team, which Toro Rosso team owner Gerhard Berger dismissed.[12]

He holds a Master's degree in management from the Toulouse Business School.[13]
