| Bowmanville, 4 August, 2000 Both Audis on the provisional front row |
| After |
taking |
a |
solid |
1-2 |
victory |
at |
Sears |
Point, |
the |
Audi |
drivers |
continue |
to |
set |
| the |
pace |
at |
Mosport. |
Frank |
Biela |
and |
Rinaldo |
Capello |
recorded |
the |
fastest |
| times |
during |
the |
first |
qualifying |
session |
for |
the |
sixth |
round |
of |
the |
American |
Le |
Mans Series (ALMS) on Friday, both braking the official track record. |
| The final qualifying on the former Canadian Grand Prix circuit starts on Saturday |
at 14:45 hrs. |
Frank Biela (#78) |
| „At Sears |
Point we |
did not |
look so |
well |
compared to |
our teammates. |
So it |
is |
a |
great feeling having set the fastest time today.” |
| „Generally |
I |
am |
very |
content. |
The |
track |
was |
a |
little |
bit |
more |
slippery |
than |
yesterday. Traffic held me up during my fastest lap.” |
| „At Mosport it is very important to start from the front because overtaking is |
very |
| difficult. I |
hope |
we |
can |
keep |
the |
first |
two |
places |
tomorrow. |
I |
believe |
Panoz |
will |
reduce the gap, but our cars are looking very strong.” |
| „The track is really not easy, |
but we were able to find |
the right setup. The car |
is |
| very well |
balanced, this |
is |
the key |
to |
success on |
this track. |
But |
the race |
is |
on |
Sunday - and Panoz and BMW are not to far away." |
