Tamas Pal Kiss scored the fastest lap of the day at Estoril in qualifying for the final round of the 2014 Auto GP championship. The Hungarian racer, fielded by Virtuosi UK, logged a personal best laptime of 1'28"759 to take his maiden pole position, which was also the first for the British squad. Thanks to today's results they were able to tally one more point in their chase for the teams' championship.

The front row for tomorrow will be completed by 2013 Auto GP champion Vittorio Ghirelli, who was back behind the wheel of a Super Nova-prepared car and missed the pole by just 0.083s. The second row will feature a returning face as Brazilian Antonio Pizzonia (Zele Racing) topped German Markus Pommer (Super Nova).

At his third run of the year, Japanese Shinya Michimi, fielded by Euronova Racing, rounded out the top-5 and will be partnered in row 3 by Virtuosi UK's Andrea Roda. The rest of the grid will feature Michele La Rosa (MLR71 by Euronova), Francesco Dracone (Super Nova) and Salvatore De Plano (FMS). Angolan Luis Sa Silva (Zele Racing) was forced to sit out of the Q2 segment due to a power loss in Q1, while Kevin Giovesi (FMS) didn't take part in the session.

The two closing races of the 2014 Auto GP season will be held on Sunday, October 19th, and will be starting at 11:50 and 18:15. The heats will be televised live by Eurosport. (All times local, GMT+1).
