Petr Fulín leads Aurélien Comte in morning warm up

Petr Fulín topped the morning warm up session ahead of today’s European Touring Car Cup races at the Slovakiaring. The Krenek Motorsport BMW driver was seven tenths of a second faster than the fastest Single-Make Trophy class car of Aurélien Comte.

Comte, driving for Galaxy Racing, has been the fastest of the Single-Make Trophy SEATs throughout the weekend, but after an error in qualifying, overtaking under the yellow flag, the Frenchman will be starting from eighth on the grid for the first race of the day instead of his original qualifying position of P3.

Mat’o Homola was third fastest in his BMW 320si, with Monza Race 1 winner Jordi Oriola fourth in the Tuenti Racing Team SEAT Supercopa.

Michal Matejovsky, who crashed out in qualifying and will start from last for the first race, was fifth in the BMW 320si.

The S2000 SEATs continue to struggle at the Slovakiaring, with Igor Skuz the best placed in the Campos Racing car in 17th just ahead of Dusan Borkovic’s NIS Petrol Racing SEAT León TFSI.

In S1600, “Romeo Luciano” was fastest in the Ravenol Team SAN Ford Fiesta, ahead of S1600-class points leader and pole sitter Kevin Krammes.

Race one begins at 11:30 CET.
