Rwanda's F1 Bid Leads African Race

News summary

Rwanda has officially announced its bid to host a Formula 1 Grand Prix, marking a potential return of the event to Africa for the first time since 1993. President Paul Kagame emphasized Rwanda's commitment to this venture, with plans for a new track near Kigali's Bugesera airport, designed by former F1 driver Alexander Wurz. Discussions with F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali indicate serious consideration of Rwanda's proposal, although the addition to the F1 calendar has yet to be confirmed. This initiative aligns with Rwanda's broader strategy to use sports for economic growth and increased global visibility, amidst criticisms of 'sportwashing' from some quarters. The move is supported by seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton, who has long advocated for F1's return to Africa. Rwanda's bid is seen as a frontrunner compared to South Africa, whose plans to revive the Grand Prix at Kyalami have faced setbacks.
