In Pixar's Cars 2, what is the name of the villain behind the World Grand Prix sabotage?

Sir Miles Axlerod is the villain behind the World Grand Prix sabotage in Pixar's Cars 2.

Axlerod presents himself as a former oil tycoon who has converted to electric power. He organizes the World Grand Prix to promote Allinol, a supposedly clean alternative fuel, while secretly using the event to discredit alternative energy and provoke conflict among racers.

The plot makes Axlerod's identity a mystery for much of the film. Professor Zündapp acts as one of his principal allies, while Finn McMissile and Holley Shiftwell investigate the conspiracy. The story combines spy-film elements with the racing world established by the first Cars movie.

Axlerod's name is often mixed up with Professor Zündapp because both are connected to the sabotage. However, Zündapp is an accomplice and scientist, while Axlerod is the mastermind revealed at the climax.
