4 Hours of Algarve qualifying

The four qualifying sessions of this afternoon’s 4 Hours of Algarve saw changing track conditions with a heavy shower before the LMGTE took the track. When LMP3 started their session, they benefited from a drying line following LMGTE qualifying but after a few laps, the rain started to fall again. LMP2 Pro-Am started their session with a clear sky (wet then drying track) and LMP2 could qualify under shining sun but with some parts of the track still wet.
