Lake Ohrid sits at the start of this North Macedonia racing game.

The Macedonian Grand Prix is a lake-park layout, flat with just 7 metres of climb.

Around the North Macedonia track

The Church of St John looks out over Lake Ohrid, and the Millennium Cross stands on the skyline. The old Stone Bridge of Skopje crosses the river nearby. Lakes break up the land, the buildings are Mediterranean in style, and cars and Ladas are parked by the fences. The banner greets you in Macedonian, and the boards name Ohrid, Bitola, Prespa, Pelister, Galičica and the Vardar.
