Roussel sets the first pole in World KF1

Mikko Pakari (Maranello / Maranello) and Matias Köykkä (CRG / Maxter) had a few laps at the top of the table in the first group for timed qualifying in KF1 at Wackersdorf before Nyck De Vries (Zanardi / Parilla) set a 49”662. But Leo Roussel (Sodi / Parilla) surprised everyone at the end of session by setting provisional pole with 48”601.

The second session was wet and performanced dropped by about 30” on slick tires. Therefore, the tightrope walkers were playing their trump card, Dylan Lahaye (Maranello / Maranello) was doing very well with 1’20”757, 3 full seconds faster than Sébastien Bailly (Kosmic / Vortex) and Chris Lock (Tony Kart / Vortex). Chamberlain and De Ridder did not even set a time.

As might be expected, Leo Roussel took pole for the final later in the day. Lahaye is on the front row in Race 1 on Saturday afternoon, De Vries and Bailly on the second.
