I wouldn't necessarily get worried over Corvette pace, last year's quali was very low key as well but just look at what happened in the race.

All this crap about the M3s having these waivers yet Ferrari sits atop the GTE field.

Again, it shows how great potential 458 has in proper hands... the only car without BoP breaks

What a drive by Bruni! I didn't think he was going to be able to take it and then wow.... Speaking of wow, looking at the timing screen now and wow is this a great GT field.

Too bad Dirk messed that up there, but who cares about the pole... looking forward to see one of the white machines on top of the podium tomorrow

Another fantastic GT session and a great pole for AF Corse. The Lotus brigade appears to be racing a brick instead of a GT car.

Geesh that practice crash was scary, especially to see a tire flying in a corner close to a spectator area with no safety fencing.

Certainly was. Surely there must have been some yellow flags waving? The Ford just flew in there it seemed? Is that car expected to make the race or are the Robertson's done?

According to Johnny Mowlem (from DSC report of one of the earlier sessions) they're short on horsepower- 'I think we've got the car handling pretty well, we're just down on power compared to our competition. I'm not sure how it looks from outside the car, but from the inside it feels really good in the corners. We just can't keep up on the straights'

Those Audis and Peugeots must be grilling some steaks in their cars with all that visible smoke!
