Qualifying
Qualifying was led by the No. Sangari Corvette of Enrique Bernoldi, however the car had been given a five grid spot penalty prior to qualifying for causing an avoidable accident during pre-qualifying practice. This moved the Sangari car back to sixth, and moved Alex Müller to pole position and allowing Vitaphone Racing Team to lock out the front row. In the GT2 category Gianmaria Bruni of AF Corse secured an all Ferrari front row alongside CRS Racing.Qualifying results
