Adam Carroll will start 13th and 7th for Belmayne A1 Team Ireland in round three of the A1GP World Cup of Motorsport at the Sepang International Circuit tomorrow.
After difficult practice sessions the team made further changes ahead of qualifying which made a big difference to the handling of the car.
Unfortunately Carroll lost time on his first run on new tyres as the rear stepped out at Turn 14 but with a clear track in Qualifying 2 he clocked a 1:49.915secs which eventually left him P13.
The team worked hard ahead of Qualifying 3 to fix a problem with one of the wishbones and had Carroll back on track with six minutes left on the clock for his final run on new tyres.
He delivered a fantastic lap of 1:49.218seconds which puts him P7 for the Feature Race tomorrow.
Switzerland’s Neel Jani put in a sensational performance during qualifying to take pole position for tomorrow’s Sprint and Feature race.
The Swiss star will start the Sprint race from P1 tomorrow morning for the third consecutive season at Sepang and he will lead the drivers off the grid for A1GP’s 50th ever race tomorrow afternoon.
