00:00Ferrari driver Lewis Hamilton welcomed Formula One's plan to return to Africa,
00:05saying he'll extend his career until he can race on the continent.
00:10The seven-time Formula One champion and the sport's only black driver,
00:15Hamilton said it's been his dream.
00:18Last week, Formula One announced a 10-year contract with Rwanda
00:22to host a Grand Prix starting in the early 2030s.
00:27It will be the first time Formula One has raced in Africa since 1993.
00:34Rights activists criticised the choice of Rwanda,
00:38pointing to abuses by President Paul Kagame and his government.
00:43Hamilton acknowledged the issue, but said he'd approach it with humility.
00:48He said going there doesn't mean you neglect the things that are happening there.
