The pilots are back on the track F2 for the Baku GP Qualifying, a mostly sunny session with higher temperatures: the asphalt temperature, at the start of the tests, was close to 45°. Let's see what happened this Friday on the circuit of Baku.
The first free practice session saw the best time in the hands of Enzo Fittipaldi, a gap of about three tenths from Kush Maini and Andrea Kimi Antonelli, immediately in great shape on the city circuit. The great protagonists seem to be them but as soon as the F2 qualifying starts they immediately we immediately understand that the story will be very different.
At the start of the qualifications I am Verschoor, Martins and Antonelli to compose the temporary Top 3. Some difficulty for Hauger Spinning in his attempt, causing a yellow flag in the first sector.
The temporary one is very good right away Gabriele Mini which first reaches 7th position and then improves and even reaches the 5° in the rankings. Debut so far extremely positive for the driver from Palermo who immediately showed confidence with the new single-seater. All the F3 debutants have so far shown great ability to adapt to the new cars. Good also Browning in the 8th century mansell in 12th position, but about XNUMX are missing 8′ minutes to go.
The first twist comes with 5 minutes to go. Both Campos Racing Team cars hit the wall at Turn 1! Both cars go to the block but at different times. Events not connected to each other but it is assumed that the same 'cause' brought both cars out. Out therefore the leader of the ranking Isack Hadjar!
Session suspended and Red flag with 4:14 minutes left.
When the sessions resumed, everyone has only one attempt available and the one who manages to prevail over everyone is the Trident di Richard Verschor. First position gained with the time ofi 1: 54.857, just +0,017 thousandths ahead of Andrea Kimi Antonelli in P2. Closing the top 3 is Victor Martins, approximately two tenths behind.
Excellent qualifying for Gabriel Bortoleto in 6th position who will be able to enjoy the inverted grid, 4th in Sprint Race, and a disastrous qualifying for Hadjar. Gabriele Minì also excellent on his debut in 8th position.
Below are the results of the F2 Qualifying for the Baku GP:
