Light: Matteo Pellegrino Zolder Thursday notes

Pellegrino Starts Off On The Right Foot in Zolder

Thursday's free practice session in sight of the World Series Light race scheduled on Sunday April 25th on the Belgian Track of Zolder, has just ended.

Matteo Pellegrino showed up at the session in great shape after participating in a test session last week on the same track.

The time he set; 1'25''493, places him in first place. Mathieu Lahaye is the runner up and is at least 1 second behind Matteo.

Two other free practice sessions are scheduled on Friday and two qualifying stints are on the program for Saturday. Race 1 will start at 11:00am on Sunday and race 2 will be at 1:20pm on the same day.

Matteo Pellegrino

"I started off on the right foot but my adversaries will definitely breathe down my neck at the weekend. The first session today was on a wet track and I drove without pushing too hard. Then the track dried up and in the afternoon session, I lowered my time progressively until I set a good 1'25''493 with new tyres on. I lowered my time set last week on this track by 6 seconds. Therefore, I am very enthusiastic about this upcoming race on Sunday."
