Lewis Hamilton is advocating for Formula 1 to not ignore Africa and to bring back a grand prix race to the continent. South Africa last hosted an F1 event in 1993, and now discussions are underway for Rwanda to potentially host a race in the future. Hamilton believes it is the right time to return to Africa and showcase the beauty and potential of the continent.
