Hamilton extends F1 career plans to race Africa's returning grand prix

Lewis Hamilton said he will aim to keep racing into his mid-40s to compete in the African Grand Prix, confirmed for Rwanda in the early 2030s.

• F1 confirmed Rwanda will host the African Grand Prix in the early 2030s under a 10-year agreement on a planned circuit at Bugesera.
• Hamilton said he is now "forced" to stay in F1 longer to race in Africa, a dream he has pursued for years.
• Amnesty UK condemned the deal as a "sportswashing prize" for Rwanda, citing arbitrary detention, torture, and repression of free speech.
• Hamilton said Africa's history "needs to be on the curriculum" and called for efforts to free Congo, Sudan, Syria, and Palestine.
