'''Mario Circuit''' | The ''Mario Kart 8'' incarnation of '''Mario Circuit''' appears as the first course of the [[Flower Cup]]. This Mario Circuit's layout is designed after the [[wikipedia:Möbius strip|Möbius strip]] (a closed surface consisting of only one side) to make full use of the new [[anti-gravity]] mechanic of the game. It is centered around [[Peach's Castle]], which happens to be resting on floating islands, some of which also make up the course's background. Like [[Figure-8 Circuit]] and [[N64 Toad's Turnpike|Toad's Turnpike]], the track is shaped like the number eight. There are [[Goomba]]s and [[Goomba Tower]]s on the course that can spin out the player. The track is lush and green, surrounded by blue sky and white clouds, as well as waterfalls. There are twenty-two [[coin]]s located on this track. [[Mario Kart Stadium]]'s music is largely rearranged from this track's song, as confirmed by a liner note in the ''[[Mario Kart 8 Original Soundtrack]]''. In ''Mario Kart 8'', it is a selectable battle course. | ||

Being designed after a Möbius strip, the track follows a single path that twists around near the beginning. The track remains fairly simple in terms of design. Players start on the straightaway of the Möbius strip and shortly after, there is a turn to the left. Two [[Goomba]]s slowly step side-to-side in this part of the track and cause racers who collide with them to spin out. A white bridge follows the turn and starts the anti-gravity section. The track turns to the right shortly after and starts racing underneath the finish line. After a left turn, the racers cross the white bridge again, which twists the track back to normal and after another right turn, the racers approach the finish line. A [[Glide Ramp]] and [[Goomba Tower]]s appear at the stretch to the finish. Mario's [[Standard Kart]] can be seen in the pit area, alongside [[? Block]]s. | Being designed after a Möbius strip, the track follows a single path that twists around near the beginning. The track remains fairly simple in terms of design.

When [[Lakitu]] is holding the start signal, he is shown on the right side of the player. When crossing the finish line to start another lap, he is also shown on the right side of the player, holding the lap count signs. | |||
The course's starting banner can be interacted with by gliding racers, causing it to swing; the other four courses to share this feature are {{classic-link|DS|Wario Stadium}}, {{classic-link|3DS|Neo Bowser City}}, {{classic-link|Tour|Tokyo Blur}} and {{classic-link|3DS|Rock Rock Mountain}}. It is the only one of these five courses to be a new course. | The course's starting banner can be interacted with by gliding racers, causing it to swing; the other four courses to share this feature are {{classic-link|DS|Wario Stadium}}, {{classic-link|3DS|Neo Bowser City}}, {{classic-link|Tour|Tokyo Blur}} and {{classic-link|3DS|Rock Rock Mountain}}.

*After crossing the white bridge, racers can cut through the grass behind some [[Piranha Plant]] pipes with a boost item. On the other side of the strip, where this stretch of the track serves as the final turn to the finish line, the racer can go through the pipes and sand by using [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]]s or a [[Super Star|Star]]. | |||
