What the fuck is happening.
I thought the new Labour government dropped that policy?
Mohammed Ben Sulayem is promoting (or organizing?) racing-related projects in Kigali. The whole F1 circus will go there with all their airplanes for the end-of-year celebration and Max will do something "involving the Cross Car" which are built using the FIA blueprints. Most countries (including the Netherlands) have issued travel-advisories for Rwanda due to viruses and unrest at borders.
He's rich enough to get his own security army, don't worry
I just hope he takes it as personally as last time and will start giving one world replies again in official F1 press conferences.
Another small hope is that MBS finally gets pushed out and can resume crashing old F1 cars. He was way better in doing that than in being FIA president.
How is this something they are able to enforce?
"if you don't do this, you're banned from FIA sports"
I read somewhere F1 is looking to expand to Africa to do some races there.
