In the late stages of the session, the Spanish youngster managed to beat James Thompson's 1:44.217.

The latter proved that his Honda Accord car built by N.technology in cooperation with JAS Motorsport has great potential and that the 14th place in the qualifying session was mainly due to the fact that driver and team had not previously tested the car in the wet.

Another Spanish driver, Sergio Hernández clocked the third fastest lap, only 0.014 seconds behind Thompson and 0.098 seconds ahead of fellow Independent competitor Pierre-Yves Corthals.
