Puerto Rico is an island, so the lap is its coastline. This Puerto Rico racing game puts you on a race track shaped like Puerto Rico, starting at the corner named Puerto Rico and San Juan, then running east past Cabeza Chiquita and Ensenada Honda. It follows the south shore through Ponce and Playa Salinas, rounds Mayagüez in the west, and comes back along the beaches to Playa Punta Borinquen.
The Puerto Rican Grand Prix runs on a rolling cliff road, 25 metres of climb over 4.9 km.

Screenshots from the Puerto Rico circuit
Around the Puerto Rico track
El Morro fortress guards the view, its walls above the sea, and a garita sentry box stands at the edge of the cliff. Pastel houses in the style of Old San Juan line the town section, banana plants cover the hills, and cars and SUVs are parked behind the fences. The banner says Bienvenidos a Puerto Rico, and the boards name Ponce, Mayagüez, El Yunque, Culebra, Arecibo and San Juan.

Everything hangs on the main straight: 1,140 metres, ending at turn 1, the corner called Puerto Rico. Late braking there is how races are won. The slowest corner is Playa Salinas, turn 9, at 73 km/h, and the long rolling sweep along the coast to Punta Borinquen rewards carrying speed.
