The outline is F1DB’s, for every layout; the trace is OpenStreetMap’s, where it exists.
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
Bars run in finishing order, ticked on each lap a driver stopped. An unticked bar may hide a stop: F1DB’s record has gaps. A cross is a driver not classified. Only the lap is recorded: not a stop’s length, tyres or gain.

The photograph each car's Wikipedia article leads with, from Wikimedia Commons: taken wherever and whenever that was, not necessarily at this race.
A photograph marked unchecked has a file name that does not name the car it is shown for. Most are still the right car, filed under the driver rather than the machine — but nobody has confirmed these one by one.
