I just did the ring taxi in June, and first off, what an experience.
The last straight is not on the video because that is where the taxi (along with other motorists) enter and exit the track. If you look at a couple of the other you tube videos of onboard laps (the Toyota EV lap is a great one to watch in HD), they show the entrance and pavilion where everyone typically enters on the right side of that main straight.
I wish on this video that they didn't do any artsy stuff and just showed the lap, but this is also an older video.
Audi offers something similar to the Ring-taxi, and they do an onboard lap and make it available to their customers after their lap (something I wish BMW would have done), but it is an incredible experience.
