Zandvoort
Not only did I include an overlay, several configurations, placemarks for each turn; but I added historical information that I found about what the track was like long before GE was dreamed up. That includes another overlay, track configuration and more.

Circuito Permanente del Jarama

I included an overlay, a polygon showing the layout, placemarks for each turn, and a couple of notes.

Wikipedia says that this track hosted Formula 1 until officials decided it was too narrow.

Now complete: Autódromo Internacional Nelson Piquet in Brasília
Please don't confuse this track with Jacarepaguá, which commonly uses the same name.

I had very little to go on. Wikipedia didn't have any track map until I started this track. The official website is in Portugese, which I don't understand. There appears to be no English site. Trackpedia only had the outline. I only had what I could see in GE to go on. I had to assume the direction and the number/position of turns.

If you could provide more information, please do.

Historical: Jacarepaguá AKA Autódromo Internacional Nelson Piquet
Go there while GE shows something besides a pile of dirt. Portions have already been torn out. Wikipedia says the entire track is to be removed.

Estoril
I created an image for Wikipedia that I turned into an overlay. There are just two track configurations, but I also added the usual placemarks for each turn.

Historical Special: Prince George Circuit in South Africa
This was used for Formula 1, but deemed to be too small for that series. Wikipedia doesn't list any other uses for the track. However, I did see a smaller section that appears to be too small for anything other than karts although the same width as the main track.

I included an overlay and three track configurations. There are also two pit roads.

Dijon-Prenois in Eastern France
I don't know why, but the Swiss Grand Prix was held here once. Wrong side of the border. The location isn't very Swiss. I have included a new image as an overlay. The main track has only two configurations, but I also added nine configurations for a nearby go-kart track.

Historical item: Street circuit in downtown Detroit
Don't confuse this with the nearby Belle Isle track.

I have included a brand new Wikipedia image as an overlay plus placemarks for all corners, streets used, and where I thought that transmissions from in-car cameras would have failed to get through.

Brands Hatch
This circuit near London didn't take long. I did an overlay, two track configurations, pit road, turn placemarks, and placemarks for various other locations.

Updates to Lime Rock
You may know that they added new track sections. I have a decent idea of where those are. New polygons have been created with each possible configuration (16 in all), new pit road objects, and an updated overlay. I am waiting for GE to show the changes before I compute the length of objects.

You can download the new version here.
