A storm is rolling over the volcano in this Vanuatu racing game. The track is drawn from Vanuatu's coastline, and its corners trace Espiritu Santo, the country's largest island: from Baie Takouba round a long chain of points and bays, with Pointe Naonaélé, Tolomako and Pointe Lamal among them, down to Luganville and Sanma, then past Namalo and Nub Hill to Remarkable Point.

It's jungle on volcanic ground, with a dramatic 90 metres of climb over 4.3 km.

Around the Vanuatu track

Mount Yasur rises over the jungle, and storm clouds hang heavy above it. A land-diving tower stands in a clearing, and a nakamal hut sits by the road. Thatched Pacific houses and banana plants fill the gaps between the trees, the storm blows across the track, and pickups and minibuses are parked at the fences. The banner reads Welkam and Bienvenue, and the boards say Port Vila and Vanuatu.

How to drive the Vanuatu circuit

The 940-metre main straight ends at Baie Takouba, turn 1, the place to pass. After that, the lap climbs and drops through the jungle, 90 metres in all, with the storm overhead. The slowest corner is Luganville at 76 km/h, turn 10, so brake early and make the exit count.
