The first 24 drivers within less than one second in QP1 show that Monza is even more challenging and not even the tiniest mistake can be done, as it would determine the loss of a good number of positions on the grid.
“I really have the pace and the setup of the car is great, making me very confident in driving. I did not look for the toe but was lucky as I had an ART driver in front of me, far enough not to be an issue, helping me with the toe and protecting me from other drivers getting in the way. So I had the chance to attack the entire session and my laps were good, but can still be improved”, said David after the qualifying session.
Race 1 this afternoon will start at 14.25 CET and will be shown live streaming on the official Youtube and Facebook channels of the series, which are also reachable from the official website: formularegionaleubyalpine.com
