Lewis Hamilton urges nations to ‘unite and take Africa back’ alongside F1 return wish
Lewis Hamilton has said that, alongside Formula 1 returning to Africa, he hopes to see its nations “unite and take Africa back”.
The seven-time World Champion has spent plenty of time in the continent in recent years over Formula 1’s summer breaks, with the sport as a whole not having visited for over three decades.
Africa has not hosted a Formula 1 round since the 1993 South African Grand Prix, with the nation having long explored avenues to look to return to the Formula 1 calendar.
Rwanda and Morocco are also believed to have expressed an interest in hosting Formula 1 in recent years, to bring a race back to the African continent.
Having discussed his own experience of and love for Africa, Hamilton emphasised its potential on the global stage, while again reiterating his aim to be on the grid for a race as and when it returns to the sport.
