(Rossocorsa) and Vito Postiglione (Motor / Malucelli) set
the quickest times in the two qualifying sessions, heading
Gianluca Giraudi (Motor/Malucelli) and Ivan Capelli (Rossocorsa
/ Pellin) respectively. In the Shell Cup for gentlemen drivers,

Going into tomorrow’s races, the classification in
the main category is headed by Postiglione with a five point
lead over Niki Cadei (Rossocorsa,) while top of the Shell
Cup order is Sando Mucelli (Stile F Service,) who leads Massazza
by a single point.
