Qualify was no better or the C8.R and where they start for today's race

In GTE Pro, Michael Christensen stormed to pole with a rapid 1m36.371 halfway through the short GTE session in the No. 92 Porsche 911 RSR 19, just under two tenths clear of the rest of the field.

“The car is quick, we also had time for long runs in free practice, so we feel good for the race tomorrow,” Christensen said.

Behind, James Calado took the second spot on the grid in the class in the No. 51 AF Corse Ferrari 488 GTE EVO with a 1m36.566.

Calado’s time was good enough to split the Porsche, with Gianmaria Bruni’s best time in the No. 91 only good enough for third, a 1m36.800.
Bruni did push for a final flying lap to get into the top two, but after a ‘purple’ first sector, his second sector time was four tenths off, and the lap was aborted.

The No. 52 Ferrari of AF Corse took fourth, with the Corvette Racing set to start at the back of the Pro field in fifth.
