Of course it is, then people in that lane will have a disadvantage.
The difference depends on the length of the turns as well as the width of the lanes. A track with 42 inch lanes will be different than a track with 36 in lanes. Also a track with 110 meter turns and 90 meter straights will be different than one with 100 meter turns and straights.

A track has 5 lanes.
