Biela and Pirro Set the Pace in Spain
The Panoz LMP07 of Jan Magnussen and David Brabham was the first non Audi, finishing the session 1.5 seconds adrift of Biela and Pirro.
The fastest time in the LMP 675 class went to the Dick Barbour Racing Reynard Judd of De Radigues and Van de Poele, finishing nearly five seconds ahead of the Rooch-Knighthawk Lola of Mel Hawkins and Earl Goddard. The GTS honours went to the RML entered Saleen S7R of Lambert and McKellar and the Alex Job Racing Porsche 911 GT3 of Pobst and Collard was the quickest car in the highly competitive GT category, even out pacing the RML Saleen in the process.
