Zoom High kerbing proved an issue in the 2008 event

Singapore's Formula One street layout is likely to undergo changes ahead of the 2009 race, a spokesman for the Grand Prix organiser has confirmed.

Reports recently suggested the first sequence of corners could be reshaped to aid overtaking, while the track's harsh bumps could be smoothed out.

A spokesman said talks with the FIA about changes to the night venue are taking place.

"We are currently reviewing all the areas of the track and the event with the FIA," he told the Straits Times. "However, it is too early to make any specific comments."
