The official return of Formula 1 to the continent of Africa has been hailed as one of the most significant days in the history of the sport by Stefano Domenicali following a major long-term agreement.
Formula 1 officially confirmed a landmark 10-year deal with Rwanda to host the African Grand Prix, marking the championship's first race on the African continent since 1993 when Kyalami hosted the South African Grand Prix.
The historic announcement took place during a press conference attended by the President of the Republic of Rwanda Paul Kagame alongside FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem and Formula 1's chief executive officer.
Reflecting on the monumental milestone, Domenicali opened the briefing by stating, "Welcome to what will be remembered as one of the most significant days in the history of Formula 1." He emphasized that for too long Africa was missing from the global calendar, but the partnership with Rwanda provides the right vision for the future.
With drivers, teams, and fans eagerly anticipating the new chapter, this 10-year agreement solidifies a truly global footprint for Formula 1 as it enters an exciting new era across its 76-year history.
