After torrential rain yesterday it was with much relief that the 7km Spa-Francorchamps circuit remained dry for qualifying.  Ritchie Stanaway took control of the session with an early 2m17.167 lap which he improved to 2m17.039 before heading to the pits to hand over Fernando Rees.  The Brazilian put in a 2m16.642 lap, the fastest single of qualifying at the point, to put the no99 in control with an average time of 2m16.840.

The no51 AF Corse Ferrari of Gianmaria Bruni was down the running order before the Italian handed over to Toni Vilander who set a good time.  The Finn came back into the pits to hand the car back to Bruni.  The reigning world champions played a blinder as Bruni set the fastest lap of the session, a 2m16.420 to put the no51 458 into second place on the GTE Pro grid and pushing the no97 Aston Martin of Darren Turner and Stefan Mucke.

After setting the fastest times in the wet free practice sessions yesterday the two Porsche Team Manthey 911s couldn’t match the pace of the Ferrari and Aston Martin.  The two cars ended up at the back of the Pro grid with the no91 car just ahead of the no92 911.

In LMGTE Am it was a battle between no98 Aston Martin Vantage and no50 Labre Competition Corvette and it was the Vantage of Pedro Lamy and Paul Dalla Lana after the Canadian set a 2m21.185 lap to give the car an average time of 2m19.578, two seconds ahead of the no50 Chevrolet of Paola Ruberti and Gianluca Roda.  The no88 Abu Dhabi-Proton Racing Porsche 911 of Christian Ried and Klaus Bachler set the third fastest time, just ahead of the fastest Ferrari, the no55 AF Corse run 458 of Duncan Cameron and Matt Griffin.

The 2015 WEC 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps will start at 14h30 on Saturday 2 May.
