Matteo Cairoli (Porsche 911 GT3 R #20): “This pole position feels fantastic – especially since I didn’t expect such a great result. In yesterday’s pre-qualifying, we were still a bit off with our car setup in comparable conditions. We didn’t know whether the changes we had made would work. However, the Porsche 911 GT3 R was really fast today and I felt great. I achieved my fastest lap on my very first attempt. I was even faster on the second lap, but then I made a minor mistake and abandoned the lap. It doesn’t matter, it was good enough...” Source: Porsche
