The story is linear, but the gameplay can be less linear if you choose to mess around.
The map is basically a large area with many "zones" interconnected. You'll have a desired zone to go to(by story requirement or upgrade collection), and you are free to route your drive there however you like(avoiding bad weather, choose zones with gas stations..).
As for how a round end, think of extraction games. You've collected a lot of parts for your next run, now you get out of there via the game's extraction mechanic (This part is most fun since the game turn the heat up), you will end up safe'n sound in the garage if you succeed. Failing a run is rare on normal difficulty, you will keep ~ 40% of your loot in a failed run.
Each run is quite lengthy, you can pause & save mid-run in game. So if you want something that can just kill time, this game will do just that.
