It was extended past Turn 9, which now turns left into a new sequence of right handers, then left again before shooting through a chicane that leads back to the start/finish straight. This now brings the total number of corners to 15.{{cite news |last1=Manila |first1=Time Attack |title=Carmona Race Track undergoes first major renovation in 29 years |url=https://timeattackmanila.com/motorsports/motorsportnews/carmona-race-track-undergoes-first-major-renovation-in-29-years/ |access-date=10 October 2023 |work=Time Attack Manila |date=16 June 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190620202210/https://timeattackmanila.com/motorsports/motorsportnews/carmona-race-track-undergoes-first-major-renovation-in-29-years/ |archive-date=20 June 2019}}
