This week, the country’s President Paul Kagame officially announced Rwanda’s candidacy to enter the calendar in the coming months. A prospect that excites Max Verstappen as he confided in comments reported by West : “First of all, I’ve never done this before, so I think it would be great for motorsport in general to be active on all continents”.

Leclerc hopes to come to Africa

An opinion shared by Charles Leclerc. The Monegasque driver hopes Rwanda can put Africa on the map: “Coming to Africa would be absolutely brilliant because it’s one of the only continents where we don’t race and there are a lot of Formula 1 fans here. Until today, few countries have shown interest, but finally Rwanda did, and it is very interesting. » It now remains to be seen whether this project will succeed and within what time frame.
