Formula One chief executive Bernie Ecclestone refused to be drawn on whether changes will be made to the 2009 season to compensate for a lack of the traditional mid-summer break.
Next year's calendar runs from the end of March to November but is without the usual three-week break in August.
Consequently a number of teams have expressed concerns that drivers, engineers, mechanics and staff will suffer burn-out.
Possible solutions to make room in the schedule would be to move around the German, Hungarian or Turkish Grand Prix.
But Ecclestone was remaining quiet over the exact details of what could happen.
"Lets have a look," said the 77-year-old. "The movement is very jerky at the moment but we are going to do something."
Ecclestone is currently in Singapore where Formula One's historic first night race will take place on Sunday.
And asked whether it is a dream come true Ecclestone replied: "Yes it is.
"I think this is going to be good and I am anxious to see how it looks on television. That is what we have done it for so let's see how it works."
