Moscow 1 is one of the two introductory levels featuring the sports car, along with Hong Kong 1. It is the first level of the Moscow track, and the first to be played in Season mode when starting the game for the first time.

Race[]
Moscow 1 introduces a 5.9-mile track, guiding racers along the Ring Road. Suited for beginners, the track adopts a straightforward design, capping the top speed of each sports car at around 140 mph. Notably, the top AI contender is Rossi, who starts the race behind every car except the player's, boasting the highest speeds of all AI opponents. The player, however, can drive a lot faster than Rossi, making Moscow 1 a winnable race.
Should Rossi struggle to overtake his opponents, the primary AI to contend with is frontrunner Ivanov. Interestingly, in the Grand Tour Racing '98 version, the final positions among the AI racers may vary depending on the player's chosen team. For instance, opting to play as Ivanov, thereby pushing all opponents up one spot from their starting positions, could elevate Ahmed as a top contender. This particular scenario arises due to an early crash involving Lumiere and Roberts, where Roberts' unsuccessful attempt to overtake Lumiere, given the latter's sluggish acceleration, allows Ahmed to jump from 4th to 2nd. Later in the race, frontrunner Xu's consistent blunder allows Ahmed to claim 1st.
