Grid to flag
Lines run from grid slot to result, ending at the last lap completed. A dashed line ending in a cross is a driver not classified. Nothing between is recorded, so a crossing is not an overtake at that lap.

Pit stops
Pit stops are recorded from 1994. F1DB, the source of every stop here, holds none before then, so this race has no stints to draw.
