Formula One is set to return to Africa for the first time since 1993 after announcing a 10-year deal with Rwanda on Tuesday. The African Grand Prix will take place at a new track near Kigali, with the race expected to join the calendar in the early 2030s. F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali called it "a landmark moment" for the sport. The move answers Lewis Hamilton's long-standing call for a race on the continent;

the seven-time world champion has repeatedly urged F1 to return to Africa. The last African Grand Prix was held at Kyalami in South Africa in 1993. The new circuit near Rwanda's capital will be purpose-built for F1. The agreement signals F1's commitment to expanding into new markets and engaging with a growing fan base in Africa.
