Low, flat and close to the water, this is a lap of nine corners and long, quick runs between them. The Cayman Islands racing game here follows a track drawn from the Cayman Islands' coastline: Sparrowhawk Point at the end of the straight, then Beach Bay and South West Point, up past Seven Miles and Coral Gables to George Town, and round through Little Sound to Water Cay.

The Grand Prix of Cayman Islands is a coastal atoll course, 4.9 km long and almost flat at 8 metres of climb.

Screenshots from the Cayman Islands circuit

Around the Cayman Islands track

George Town's waterfront is the main view, with a cruise ship moored offshore and stingrays gliding in the shallows. An iguana sits on the rocks near the barriers. The ground is sandy and barely above the sea, like an atoll, and pastel Caribbean buildings line the road. Cars and minibuses park behind the fences, the sky is clear, and a banner says Welcome to the Cayman Islands. The boards read George Town.

How to drive the Cayman Islands circuit

The 850-metre main straight ends at Sparrowhawk Point. The slowest corner is the last, Water Cay, at 72 km/h, so the exit there sets your speed for the whole straight. With 8 metres of climb, the atoll is flat, and the long runs between nine corners make the slipstream count.
