AF Corse Keeps Top Spot At Spa as Leclerc Leads Second Practice
Ferrari's depth at Spa shows in morning and afternoon pace and shifts the focus to qualifying and night running to sort the densely packed 69-car field.
Overview
- Alessio Rovera set the early benchmark in Free Practice 1 with a 2:17.234 lap for the No. 51 AF Corse Ferrari, putting the team fastest on Thursday morning.
- Arthur Leclerc extended AF Corse's advantage in the 60-minute Free Practice 2 by posting a 2:18.169 that remained fastest through the session.
- The entry list stayed tightly bunched with all 69 cars taking part and the first 23 cars separated by just one second, underscoring close GT3 parity.
- Track running was largely clean after FP1's single red flag for Kerong Li's stopped Porsche and FP2's stoppage for an incident involving the No. 28 Audi, while one car missed FP2 due to engine trouble.
- Qualifying starts in the evening with the revised format set to determine the 32 cars for tomorrow's Superpole, so tonight's sessions will be decisive for race starting order.
