River jungle

Ninety-six metres of climb, packed into a lap of jungle. This Belize racing game is a race track shaped like Belize, drawn from its border and coast: the straight brings you to Encalada Potrero, then the lap goes north through Orange Walk to Punta Consejo and Corozal, down the coast past Belize City and Dangriga to the Gulf of Honduras, and through Toledo and Punta Gorda to Happy Farms Village. Fourteen corners in all.

The Grand Prix of Belize runs through river jungle under clear skies, and it's a dramatic lap for its size.

Around the Belize track

Xunantunich, a Maya temple, rises over the canopy. A carved Maya stela stands by the road, and a stilt house sits above the riverbank. Banana and sugarcane grow in the clearings, colonial-style buildings fill the town, and pickups and buses are parked by the fence. The river winds through the trees beside the track. The banner reads Welcome to Belize · Bienvenidos, and the boards say Belmopan.
