Rob Huff Second-Fastest, Muller Fifth, While Menu Misses Q2 After Crashing
As feared by many, the qualifying session in Marrakech today was disrupted by many incidents (the session was red-flagged three times), turning the possibility of performing a fast lap into something closer to a lottery. In these conditions, Rob Huff managed to secure a spot in first row tomorrow, having set the second-fastest time in Q2. Yvan Muller will also be in a good position: his fifth time allows him to sit in third row.
The Cruzes proved to be very competitive with Rob and Yvan and the team can aim for some good result tomorrow. Unfortunately, one of today’s many incidents involved Alain Menu, who crashed during Q1. He will have to start from the 13th position and his mechanics will have to repair again the car tonight.
