Seven drivers showed for their qualifying effort ahead of the Race of Brazil this coming Sunday, October 9th. Action was abundant for the 15 minute qualifying session as cold tires early on led to several spins. As the tires warmed and times began to be laid down, drivers began taking more chances which led to further carnage. Ethan Maestri was running a good lap when he clipped an apex a little too tightly in Turn 11 and bounced His #85 Audi off the opposite wall, sending him to the pits for repairs. Tony Tyree would clip the wall a few laps later, sending him in for damage control as well.
On the night, Andrew Steppat takes his third straight WTCC pole into Sunday's event. Travis Billingsley turned in a very fast 2:15 to take the second starting spot. Paul Maestri narrowly makes it into the Top 3 for the starting grid, finishing .300 ahead of Ethan Maestri.
We await the green flag for Heat 1 of the Race of Brazil and the third event in the FRL's WTCC series.
