WEC Qatar Prologue: Jota Porsche fastest in delayed first session
Due to the late arrival of the freight in Qatar, the three-hour test session at the Losail International Circuit was rescheduled from Saturday and Sunday to Monday and Tuesday, and made optional. Norman Nato set the pace in the Hypercar class, clocking a 1m41.822s in the #12 Porsche LMDh, leading the #38 Jota entry driven by Jenson Button. The Isotta Fraschini Tipo 6 LMH Competizione, the sole non-Porsche entry in the Hypercar field, struggled to find pace initially. In the LMGT3 class, Nicolas Costa topped the timesheets in the United Autosports McLaren, narrowly edging out Charlie Eastwood in the TF Sport Chevrolet. The Prologue’s second mandatory session, involving all participants, will run from 6pm to 11pm local time.
