Grass removed from circuit edgeThe FIA`s Charlie Whiting has ordered safety revisions to the Malaysian Grand Prix venue.
The permanent Race Director and Safety Delegate inspected Sepang this week, and asked organisers to replace overgrown grass at the track`s verge with interlocking bricks, according to the local Star newspaper.
"(Otherwise) Charlie said there were no problems with the track," said general manager Datuk Ahmad Mustafa.
Reportedly, Whiting was concerned that the grass bulges could have posed a danger to drivers.
Malaysia will stage the second round of the 2006 championship, a week after next Sunday`s Bahrain opener.
