F1 returns to Africa for first time since 1993 with 10-year Rwanda deal from ‘early 2030s’

The Guardian

African Grand Prix will take place at new track near Kigali Stefano Domenicali: ‘Today is a landmark moment for F1’ Formula One has answered Lewis Hamilton’s call to have a race in Africa after the sport’s bosses announced Rwanda is set to join the calendar. The seven-time world champion Hamilton has long since challenged F1 to return to the continent, with the last race staged there in 1993. And F1 confirmed on Tuesday a new 10-year deal with Rwanda, which will start in the “early 2030s”.
