Collard offers a 1st line to Pescarolo

Face notamment à deux Lola Rebellion désormais motorisées par Toyota, se qualifier en première ligne n?apparaissait pas comme une tâche aisée pour l?écurie d?Henri Pescarolo. Mais dès son entrée en piste, Emmanuel Collard montra à la concurrence qu?il faudrait compter cette saison sur l?écurie sarthoise. Finalement, dans un ultime effort, le Suisse Neel Jani, en 1’46 »783, chipera la pole à son rival français pour deux petits dixièmes. Mais après un an d?inactivité, une première ligne reste très encourageante.

“Qualifying is one thing, the race is another, Manu Collard told us, delighted to be back in green. But I am especially happy with the behavior of the car in racing configuration. We are very consistent in these conditions. Being on the front line is really good. We must not forget that we only drove very little before arriving here. The car is reliable, the crew is homogeneous? But in the race it's going to be close, we can see it from the times achieved. »

Tomorrow, Emmanuel Collard, Christophe Tinseau and Julien Jousse will have only one objective: Allow Henri Pescarolo to return to victory for his return to competition?
