Hamilton Reaches Rafah Crossing. Aid Hasn't.
The Take
Lewis Hamilton races at 300 kilometers per hour. Aid trucks wait at Rafah for weeks. The seven-time world champion visited the crossing to observe relief efforts. Egyptian officials showed him the facilities. Those facilities process a fraction of required daily supplies. Hamilton drove away from the border. The aid did not.
