ET.China AGT Masters qualifying: Oliver Lee grabbed pole

The Challenge Show (C1) was held at Shanghai International Circuit this weekend, with E.T. China AGT Masters as one of the most eye catching races of the event with nine Ferraris on the track. Major focus was placed on Hong Kong drivers Oliver Lee and Paul Poon with their previous steady performance in the GT races. Moreover, superstar Aaron Kwok also participated in both the GT race and Clio China Cup Series this weekend.

The weather for the qualifying session remained humid despite an afternoon shower. Track temperature was relatively high yet the qualifying session still started sharp at 1:40pm. During the session, Hong Kong Driver Oliver Lee, with his white Ferrari F430 GT3, performed his best time in his 5 th lap at 1:54.386. Another Hong Kong driver, Paul Poon, also performed well with his best time at 1:55.134. We certainly expect a good fight from Poon and Lee. Samson Fung, Yu Kam Cheong and Bryon Tong came 3 rd , 4 th and 5 th respectively. Meanwhile, Aaron Kwok set a 2:00.709 in his F360 in his very first qualifying session in this championship. The only female driver, Zhang Ran, didn't compete in the qualifying session in her yellow Ferrari F430 due to technical issues. However, the team is working hard on the car in the hopes of making it to Sunday's races.
