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 Möbius strip (a closed surface consisting of only one side) to make full use of the new anti gravity aspect of the game. It is placed around Peach's Castle which happens to be on floating islands. Like Figure-8 Circuit, the track is shaped like an 8. There are Goomba Towers near the finish line that can slow down the player. This track uses both the Hang Glider from Mario Kart 7 and also the new anti-gravity wheels in Mario Kart 8. The track is lush and green, surrounded by the blue sky and white clouds. Mario Kart Stadium's theme is a cover of this track's music.
Course layout
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. A white bridge is a short ways away of the turn which starts the anti gravity section. The track turns to the right shortly after and start racing underneath the finish line. After a left turn, the racers cross the white bridge, which twists the track back to normal and after another right turn, the racers approach the finish line. A gliding ramp and Goomba Towers appear at the stretch to the finish.
