At 16:00 the Cars hit the first time the Track. Just before the free Practice Rain hit the Track. But right when the practice started, the Rain stopped and we had a dry Session. For the free practice I desided to take the Maison Blanche Grandstand with a view to the Ford Chicane and the entrance to the Pits.

For the Qualifying Practice 2 I went to the Dunlop Grandstand. Great View to the Dunlop Chicane. So I climb to the Top of the Grandstand to take my Pictures. Wow! Unbelivible hot under the Tin Roof. At 19:00 the Session started.







At 20:30 the session was stopped by a Red Flag.

Jan Magnussen destroyed his Corvette #63. The Car hits heavely the Barriers. It took more Time to repair the Barrier, then Time was left for the Qualy Session. So the Session was abonded.
