Ben Sulayem says F1 V8s return in 2030, Rwanda to use them first

FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem said at a panel in Kigali that the new V8 would debut in 2030 and power Rwanda’s planned African Grand Prix from its first running. The race is planned for the early 2030s on a purpose-built circuit. Ben Sulayem also said the cars would be about 80kg lighter, with engine hardware and research-and-development costs at least 50% lower. GPBeat reports. [1]
