Alaska gets a circuit of its own, separate from the main United States track. This Alaska racing game follows a track drawn from Alaska's coastline: the lap leaves for the Chugach Mountains, drops to Prince William Sound and Cook Inlet, runs out along the Alaska Peninsula to Bristol Bay, then heads north past Norton Sound and the Seward Peninsula to the North Slope. Seventeen corners, each named for the stretch of coast it traces.
The Alaska Grand Prix climbs 84 metres on a glacier road, with Denali over every rise.

Screenshots from the Alaska circuit
Around the Alaska track
Denali fills the skyline, white and enormous, and the glacier road runs beneath it. A glacier front meets the water, icebergs drift past, and log cabins make up the small arctic village by the track. Pickups, SUVs and snowmobiles are parked behind the fence. The air is clear, so you can see a long way. The boards read Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, Kenai and Seward, and the banner says Welcome to Alaska.
