The '''Finish Line''' is an element that appears in the ''[[Mario Kart (series)|Mario Kart]]'' series. It is a checkered line that appears on the course, which comes in many colors. [[Lakitu]] will wave the checkered flag when players cross the line, which signals the end of the race. In addition, the line is also used to signal when to start racing when the lights on Lakitu's starting signal turns green and when they can start the next lap/section. Most of the time, the Finish Line acts as the starting line, but since ''[[Mario Kart 7]]'', there are some courses in which the two lines are separate from each other, forming a one-way route between the two that is split into sections instead of looping.

Rocket Start
The Finish Line in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

The Finish Line is an element that appears in the Mario Kart series. It is a checkered line that appears on the course, which comes in many colors. Lakitu will wave the checkered flag when players cross the line, which signals the end of the race. In addition, the line is also used to signal when to start racing when the lights on Lakitu's starting signal turns green and when they can start the next lap/section. Most of the time, the Finish Line acts as the starting line, but since Mario Kart 7, there are some courses in which the two lines are separate from each other, forming a one-way route between the two that is split into sections instead of looping.

Most games have a gate at the Finish Line with the words "Mario Kart" written on the beam at the top. Super Mario Kart and Mario Kart: Super Circuit lack this feature, however, and Mario Kart DS is the only game with goal gates that does not add them to any SNES or GBA retros.
