With the best time of 1:37.058, the gaucho led the last practice session before Saturday, which features two qualifying sessions for the first time, in addition to the first of the two races of the weekend. The frantic stage may help Marçal Muller.
Called the “Saturday King” in the Porsche Cup paddock, Muller has achieved two poles and three wins on Saturdays, crucial points to maintain the championship lead with a 26-point difference over the second place. If the rule is confirmed, the gaucho may start on pole for both races of the weekend, since the qualifying change results in the elimination of the reversed grid for the rest of the year.

What he said:
“It’s a good start to the work, even though the free practice doesn’t count for points. We know it’s good preparation and the last contact with the track before the qualifying sessions. We are confident and we’ll see if we can fight for the two poles and the win tomorrow.”
