Liverpool off to a good start

If FC Barcelona has risen to the roof of Europe through its results on the pitch, Liverpool is the club that is doing the best in the SuperLeague Formula. At the end of June, at the start of the season, Adrian Valles gave the English club victory in the first race, then in the final, and allowed Liverpool to take the lead in the championship.

This Friday, Adrian Valles started the free practice day in Zolder perfectly. The Spanish driver set the best time in the first and third practice sessions, for a fourth time in the second. In the combined ranking, he gave Liverpool the best time of the day, by far, in 1:18:867.

Far from it, Nelson Panciatici perfects the learning of car Lyonnaise. The Frenchman progressed regularly in the rankings, during the three sessions, in which he ranked 11th, 10th and finally 8th. In terms of time, Panciatici also improved his mark throughout the day, finishing with an honorable 1:21:431. The OL driver's time is certainly far from that of Valles, but it places him ahead of drivers such as Giorgio Pantano or Yelmer Buurman, who were among the fastest at Magny-Cours.

But the serious things really begin on Saturday afternoon, during the qualifying tournament, in order to define the starting grids for the first race on Sunday.
