Nine corners and a lot of fast road in between. This Mauritius racing game is a race track shaped like Mauritius, drawn round the island's coast: Savanne in the south at turn 1, then Passe de L’Ambulante and Rivière Noire up the west side, Port Louis city, Rivière du Rempart in the north, and down the east coast through Flacq, Pointe du Diable and Providence to Grand Port.

The Grand Prix of Mauritius is a modern, purpose-built layout, 4.9 km long with 23 metres of rolling climb.

Around the Mauritius track

Le Morne Brabant, the big rock on the island's south-west tip, rises over the lap, and an old sugar mill chimney stands among the cane fields. A Hindu temple adds colour further round. Sugarcane covers most of the open ground, and the buildings are painted in soft pastels. Cars and minibuses are parked trackside, the banner reads 'Bienvini · Bienvenue', and the boards name Port Louis.

How to drive the Mauritius circuit

The 1,030-metre main straight ends at Savanne, and then the lap's slowest corner arrives almost at once: Passe de L’Ambulante, turn 2, at 86 km/h. Get that pair right and the rest flows, with long fast sections between the corners round the north and east coast.
