Mar.22 (GMM) Organisers of the Australian grand prix have made changes to the Melbourne layout following Timo Glock's violent crash a year ago.
The German driver left Albert Park in 2008 wearing a bandage on his wrist, after his Toyota ran wide at the high speed turn-12 chicane and was spectacularly launched into the air over an uneven section of runoff.A week ahead of next Sunday's event at Albert Park, F1's governing body confirmed that the "verge on the exit of turn-12 has been flattened".The kerbs and artificial grass have also been extended at the exit of the chicane, and a similar change has been made at turn 6, the FIA added.
