Seventeen corners in 4 km means the steering wheel is rarely straight. The Antigua and Barbuda racing game uses a track drawn from Antigua and Barbuda's coastline, and the corners follow its parishes, points and bays: Saint Mary at the end of the straight, Monteros Hill and Mount Thomas, Saint John's, then out round Hand Point, North Sound Point and Byham Point before Devils Hole, Willoughby Bay and Saint Paul bring it home.

The Grand Prix of Antigua and Barbuda is a harbour circuit around a marina, rolling over 22 metres, and it rains.

Around the Antigua and Barbuda track

Nelson's Dockyard sits on the harbour, with sailing yachts moored in the marina beside the track. Up on the hill is the Shirley Heights lookout. Pastel Caribbean houses run along the roads, sugarcane grows behind them, and minibuses and cars are parked by the fences. The rain keeps the surface wet. The boards read St. John's, and the banner says Welcome to Antigua and Barbuda.
