“I am happy with this pole, I actually wanted to have more at this stage of the season, but it’s ok”, said the American, “it was not an easy session because conditions changed quickly from the first to the second attempt and the tyres really has a very short peak, in the first lap of each attempt.”

In row 2 will be Edward Pearson (+0s224) and Francesco Simonazzi (BVM, +0s467), both potential candidates for a race win, while returnee Vladislav Ryabov (+0s718) managed to beat Fernando Barrichello (0s775) and debuting Ricardo Escotto (1s111).
