Only eight corners, and lots of open ground between them. The Kenya racing game crosses the savanna on a track drawn from Kenya's border and coast, from Nyanza by Lake Victoria up through the Rift Valley to Loukomoru South, across the Eastern region to Rhamu Dimtu and North-Eastern, then down to the Coast and Mombasa. At 4.6 km, it's a long lap and a fast one.
The Kenyan Grand Prix is a savanna circuit with 30 metres of rolling climb and haze hanging over the plain.

Screenshots from the Kenya circuit
Around the Kenya track
Herds of animals graze beside the track and giraffes look on, while Mount Kilimanjaro shows through the haze in the distance. Maasai huts sit on the plain, tea terraces climb the green highlands, and the Kenyatta International Convention Centre marks the city section. Minibuses and Land Cruisers are parked by the fences, and the banner says Karibu Kenya. The boards name Nairobi, Nakuru and the Maasai Mara.

How to drive the Kenya circuit
The 880-metre main straight ends at Nyanza, turn 1. North-Eastern, turn 6, is the slowest corner at 85 km/h, so the lap stays quick throughout. There's a crest out on the savanna where the car goes light, and the long gaps between corners give you time to set up each one.
