Both free practices and qualifying were a challenge for the Hadeca Racing team drivers. The biggest difficulties were for Oleksandr Dobik, whose Porsche 911 GT3 Cup was damaged during testing yesterday. The team had to change the clutch, as a result of which Dobik was unable to start the first free practice.
During both free practices, some competitors (including both Hadeca Racing drivers, Yuriy Protasov and Oleksandr Dobik) did not have transponders working and as a result their on-track results were not visible. The transponders had to be replaced before qualifying.
A lot of things have changed for the better in qualifying. Yuriy Protasov became seventh in the general classification, and also became third in the Am category and third in the 992 group. Oleksandr Dobik has won the qualification in GD category (with an advantage of more than a second over the nearest competitor), as well as became sixth in the 992 group and tenth in the overall standings.
