In response to this, event organisers added a temporary tyre chicane on the approach to the crest prior to the race. In addition to this, organizers also designated the section of circuit from the second turn to the tyre chicane as a permanent yellow-flag area, banning overtaking on the approach to the chicane.Archived at Ghostarchive and the Wayback Machine: https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=PLD25674FACCB23854&feature=player_embedded&v=C_vgiRZelf4#!
