The pit lane entrance has been relocated to Turn 14 at Paul Ricard following complaints over safety during last year's French Grand Prix.
The entrance had previously been located after the final corner (Turn 15) with a sharp right then left hand turn, which forced the FIA to lower the speed limit to 60km/h, instead of 80km/h.
The organisers confirmed earlier this year that the entry would be revised for this year's race, with it now being positioned on the outside of the penultimate corner (Turn 14) – with the speed limit line located before the first right-hand turn (see above photo).
The pit exit has also been widened and extended, now exiting further down the start/finish straight.
The track has also undergone a partial resurfacing at Turn 1, Turn 3 to 7, Turns 8, 9, 11, 12 and Turn 14 to 15.
