Having a hard time figuring the flow. Do they cross the finish line then take a hard left back into the track?

Damn good question! I hadn't looked at the track layout till this post and I can't seem to figure it out? WTF but I'm sure it'll become very clear, soon...

Looks to me like after the finish line they take a left.

The other "confusing" section on the map would have them coming backwards 1/2 down the start straight and take a left.

Has to be a left after the finish (same as first turn).

No offense, but as I look at it, there's not much else you could do. Not sure why the confusion?

I would said Houston and Toronto are more confusing at first glance.

Toronto:

I think if you would have looked at it without the directional arrows you would of understood. The way it is going is indeed the only way it COULD of gone, but it still doesn't flow.

Toronto a right hander off the start, right?

Definitely left. Right would take you through a very tight first corner and over the finish backwards.

Has anyone else noticed how all the starts this year are left handers? I presume it's so the riders can still use their rear brakes?
