London Loop 1

London Loop 1 is a race track that comes from Mario Kart Tour. Hence its name, it is the first layout of the London Loop course, which takes place in London, England.
== Layout ==
London Loop 1's focus is on the more metropolitan areas in London. The racers start by taking a right turn off the Westminster Bridge, where they will encounter a roundabout. After this, they take a left turn followed by a wide right curve. This is followed by a left turn. Afterwards, the racers will make a right curve through the Leadenhall Market, with an unused left path being blocked off by a fence. After the racers get through the market, they make a slight left and then a sharp right around a grassy path where a Chain Chomp resides. This area is followed by a drawbridge similar to the one in DS Delfino Square. After the racers get through this section, they make a 90-degree right turn to stay on the road, going past the London City Hall. (There is another road that is blocked off but could otherwise be accessed via a sharper right turn; this belongs to London Loop 3.) This is followed by a straightaway where the racers have a view of a Ferris wheel called the "London Eye," and a monument called "The Shard." The racers will find another 90-degree left turn, followed by a right turn not long after to get back onto the Westminster Bridge, where the starting line awaits.
Mario Kart 8 has this layout for the first lap of London Loop. In this version, racers can perform jump boosts off the centre roundabout while going through this area. Arrow Fields replace the fences, as the racers would go through London Loop 2 and London Loop 3 later. Additionally, while no fence blocks off the left path in the Leadenhall Market, if the racers drive down this path, they will go out-of-bounds when they get far enough down the path, similarly to what happens if they decide to continue down the highway in Mushroom City from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!.
