06 Nov 2010 Programme for Saturday at Zhuhai

 

Things get serious tomorrow in qualifying. This will be the first 'moment of truth', in the form of two qualifying sessions of 20 minutes each. The first will be reserved for GT, the second for prototypes. The forecast suggests that rain may be a factor.

Audi had the pole position at the first race at Silverstone and Peugeot in the second at Road Atlanta. Who will be the fastest this time? Although qualification is not decisive in endurance races, it is still important to the media. The two rivals want to lead at the start of the 1000 kilometers of Zhuhai, that will transmitted by some thirty television channels.

Programme for Saturday:

10h00 – 11h30 – Free Practice 3
(02h00 - 03h00 UK)

11h30 – 12h30 – ACO press conference
(03h30 - 04h30 UK)

14h30 - 14h50 – GT Qualification
(06h30 - 06h50 UK)

15h00 - 15h20 – Prototype Qualification
(07h00 - 07h20 UK)
