  • Already author of one of the two pole positions during the inaugural round at Imola, Tim Tramnitz took a second leading position by dominating the first qualifying session of the weekend determining the starting grid for race 2 (Sunday , 9:45 a.m.). The German set the best time in the fastest group, in this case group B. 
  • The R-ace GP driver will share the front row with Andrea Kimi Antonelli, fastest in Group A, and Frenchman Sami Meguetounif (MP Motorsport), who missed pole by only 21 thousandths. The Marseillais had already impressed on Friday by signing the best of free practice 2, and he was able to confirm this Saturday when it really counts.
  • On the French side, in addition to the presence of Sami Meguetounif in the top 3, two other tricolors managed to qualify in the top 10. Owen Tangavelou in fact set the 3rd time in his group which will give him 5th place on the grid . Macéo Capietto will start from 8th place on the grid and will also be aiming for points. 
  • Note that the Group B session was disrupted by going off the track into the Maschio gravel 2'30 from the end of the session, causing a red flag. The drivers were able to restart but no one was really able to gain positions. 
  • There are two driving sessions left in FRECA this Saturday. Qualification for race 1 at 14:10 p.m., before the first race whose lights will go out at 18:05 p.m.
