eh, they took away the switch-back hairpins, without seeing more than a track layout it's probably not a bad change. A gaggle of hairpins there can make things real slow (reminds me a bit of the last 1/3rd of Fuji Speedway, which is slow and boring albeit climbing straight uphill). Looks like it makes that corner back onto the oval super important, and with probably a higher entry speed than from the hairpin in the prior layout.
