This is the procedure turn for the approach. This racetrack-shaped example is called a Holding in lieu of Procedure Turn (HILPT), which is designed to align you on the final approach course.

This is the Visual Descent Point for the LNAV approach. At this point a normal descent to the runway may be conducted; however, any point passed the VDP may provide a descent angle that's too steep in order to make a stabilized approach. Due to this, you must consider the idea of going missed at the MAP if the runway environment is not in sight by the VDP.
