A rough calculation of 11m inside circle, and 30m outside; traveling 3/4 around so say 60%; shortest line vs wide approach & exit equals approximately the distance of a middle line.

The wide approach/exit travels ~9m further, about 30%. Since the entry speed is the same, the exit speed would have to very different to overcome 5+bike lengths.
