Madagascar's west coast does most of the work in this Madagascar racing game. The track is drawn from Madagascar's coastline, starting in the south at Anosy and Androy, running up the Mozambique Channel past Cap Saint André, Mahajanga and Marovoay, through Sofia and Diana to Cape Bobaomby at the northern tip, then round to Sava and Antongila Bay. That leaves the long eastern shore for the main straight.
The Malagasy Grand Prix runs as a lake-park layout, flat with only 7 metres of climb. It's free in the browser, on phone or desktop.

Screenshots from the Madagascar circuit
Around the Madagascar track
The Avenue of the Baobabs lines up beside the circuit, the great trunks standing tall over the lake park. Elsewhere you'll find the grey spikes of a Tsingy stone forest and a hut among the rice paddies, with village buildings along the river. Minibuses and rickshaws are parked by the fences. The welcome banner reads 'Tonga soa', and the boards name Antananarivo, Toamasina, Nosy Be and Fianarantsoa.
