A few large drops of rain caused uncertainty when the first group of KF3 went out on track for the timed session. The track remained substantially dry, but the pace was slowed by about 3” to the following sessions.
Antonio Fuocco (TopKart / TM) was fastest ahead of Max Verstappen (CRG / Maxter), his CRG teammate last season. The Dane Slavko Ivanovic (Tony Kart / Vortex) was 3rd, followed by only five thousandths by the surprising rookie Dorian Boccolacci (Birel / BMB) and the Irishman Alex Hamilton (FA Kart / Vortex). These 5 drivers were from the 2nd group of KF3.
Robin Hansson (Energy / TM), the leader of the last group, set the sixth fastest time in front of Takashi Kasai (Tony Kart / Vortex), Niklas Nielsen (DR / Parilla), Alessio Picini (Tony Kart / Vortex) and Pedro Hiltbrand (Kosmic / Vortex ). It should be noted that the initial leader Dennis Olsen (Energy / TM) only set 47th lap. In the standings, Fuoco led from Hansson, O’Keefe, Verstappen and Hiltbrand. Boccolacci is 10th in front of Erwan Julé (Intrepid / TM).
