Let’s see if you can find a track on Google Maps on which a race was taking place at the time the satellite passed over.

Bonus points if you can identify the race and the eventual winner.

You can see cars on the Nordschliefe... but of course there’s always cars on the Nordschliefe.

I’ve got nothing, I've checked probably half a dozen tracks too.

I see no racing on your Atco picture, unless I'm just missing it.

Summit Point has a motorcycle event going on (also karting, some sort of track day on the Jefferson circuit, and what appears to be motorcycles on track on their Shenandoah circuit):

Road ATL has a couple cars on it but I don’t think its a race. Same with Spa. Ferrari World in Dubai has some test thing going on I think too!

I swear that this weekend I was looking at Monza while working with AirBnB and there were cars on the track. Now it is empty.

Definitely some cars running around Brands Hatch on Google maps, but it might be a track day.

Not sure of the race, but you can clearly see them walking back to the stables after their last run. :)
