The outline is F1DB’s, for every layout; the trace is OpenStreetMap’s, where it exists. Each one is fitted to its own box, so these are not to scale: a longer layout is not drawn larger, and none of them carries a direction, a position or a start line. The drawing that opens the page is the latest layout raced or on the calendar here, not the longest.
