outer lane
Farthest racing path
The outer lane is the lane farthest from the center of a road, track, or pool—typically the rightmost lane on highways in right-driving countries, or the outermost ring on a running track.
On multi-lane roads, the outer lane often serves slower traffic or vehicles preparing to exit.
In racing, the outer lane covers more distance on curves, making it generally less desirable for sprints.
