The KF-Junior Vega tyres will deliver their full potential on a single lap, usually the second fast lap. Drivers must aim right and not be held up on their fast lap to succeed in posting a fast time.
Everything was decided in the penultimate minute of the first qualifying session. Juan Correa (Energy / TM) was ahead with 52” 271 ahead of Ross Martin (Tony Kart / TM) and Brad Verkroost (FA Kart / TM). Sun Yang Yeu (FA Kart / Vortex) finished 4th, Clement Novalak (Kosmic / Vortex) 5th and Logan Sargeant (FA Kart / Vortex) 6th ahead of Giuliano Alesi (Tony Kart / Parilla).
The second session was much slower with the best lap from Lorenzo Travisanutto (PCR / TM) of 52” 729. He was more than 4/10 off Correa in session 1, then came Joshua Smith (ART GP / TM) who took 2nd place ahead of Alexander Vartanyan (Tony Kart / Vortex), Mick Junior (Tony Kart / Vortex) and Presley Martono (Tony Kart / Parilla).
The pace was back in the 3rd session with Ulysses De Pauw (Kosmic / Parilla) on 52” 549 ahead of Julius Lassen (Energy / TM), David Beckmann (Tony Kart / Parilla) and Max Fewtrell (FA Kart / Vortex). Only Dan Ticktum (Zanardi / Parilla) improved on the last lap and took 3rd place.
Pole position therefore goes to Correa in front of Martin and Verkroost, from the 1st session. The top French driver is Alesi in 9th. Considered one of the favourites after the meeting at Zuera Anton Haaga (Kosmic / LKE) is 8/10 off and in 40th place.
