Coronel in the front in the first training
The first training session in Slovakia ended with Tom Coronel at the top of the timesheet. The Dutchman still got a scare with a hole in the middle of the training but made the best mark, being the only one running below 2:12 (2:11: 878). To complete the top 3 we had Fréderic Vervisch (Audi) and Aurélien Comte (Peugeot).Norbert Michelisz and Mato Homola completed the top five. Peugeot highlighted in the top 5. Pepe Oriola made the sixth time, followed by Ehrlacher and a trio of Hyundai ... Muller, Tarquini and Bjork.Initial suspicions begin to be confirmed and the Audi seem to show some potential on this track as well as the Peugeot who continue to take advantage of a favorable BoP. As for the Hyundai and the Honda, there are no surprises and they are on the way to discuss the top places in the first qualifying weekend that will take place today at 4:55 p.m., after the second practice session that starts at 2:50 p.m. The VW were at the bottom of the table, the first exit to the track of the new machines, after the serious accident suffered in Vila Real. In addition, the greater weight compared to the competition should also make the task of the French team and its drivers even more difficult.
