'''Big Blue''' is the fourth and last course of the [[Bell Cup]] included with the [[Animal Crossing x Mario Kart 8|''Animal Crossing'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']] downloadable content in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' as well as the base content of ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. This course is based on the [[fzerowiki:Big Blue|Big Blue]] course that appears throughout the ''[[fzerowiki:F-Zero (series)|F-Zero]]'' series.

This course is based on the [[fzerowiki:Big Blue|Big Blue]] course that appears throughout the ''[[fzerowiki:F-Zero (series)|F-Zero]]'' series. In the same way as in [[Mute City]], [[Coin]]s can only be obtained by driving over the [[Pit (F-Zero)|Pit]] areas, [[Item Box]]es, or picking up the coins dropped by other players. This is the only DLC course in ''Mario Kart 8'' (and the sixth overall in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series) to be divided into three sections instead of three laps. Just like on Mute City, Big Blue has the ''F-Zero'' version of the starting line countdown and results theme instead of the normal version. This track shares similar characteristics and features to the game's original [[Rainbow Road (Mario Kart 8)|Rainbow Road]]. The music of the track is split in two parts: the first part plays in the first two sections, and the second part plays in the final section. | ||
This is the second track after [[Mount Wario]] to have separate soundtracks for different laps/sections. However, this may actually be a potential homage to ''[[fzerowiki:F-Zero GX|F-Zero GX]]'', as that game has an identical method of handling the music for its courses (i.e. having the initial variation of a tune play on the first and second laps and so on, while the second variation plays on the final lap). | This is the second track after [[Mount Wario]] to have separate soundtracks for different laps/sections.

The third section has several conveyor belts going backwards and forwards, each containing one or two Dash Panels. After a couple of turns, the track splits into two paths, both containing several Dash Panels and ending in a small jump into the final stretch of the race. The final segment bends in a slight curve and contains several dirt patches that can be boosted over with [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]]s or other speed-boosting items. At the end of this segment is the finish line. | The third section has several conveyor belts going backwards and forwards, each containing one or two Dash Panels.
